Really that's weird when i rode it yesterday it felt like it would be easier to pull in/out,although i really didn't ride with it all that much...i tried to build it with a nice wide dent and a not so wide lip...if it turns out to be as you describe how did you fix that?

I sold it, and this time deep flat dented it like apex,edubs old tanks but with a lip. That was much better for everything. I just had a flat tank/lip done and i think this one is gonna be the last. Everyone that has the flat lipped tanks loves them
