Who the hell wants to deal with replacing their wheels twice a week?
Um, what? I said they last LONGER than 3 weeks... That means that you DON'T have to replace them every two weeks? lol

all non oem metal cores arent worth it. seriously 40 bucks for some thing that feels nice, but you know the longer u ride, the less it lasts.
my friend bought 2 eagles for his scoot at the beginning of the school year, and they had less than 1mm if pu left on each side by the time it was spring break.
i got pro model wheels at the same time and this summer i took them off cause they were just too slow.
if you have the money to blow, sure get protos or twizzlers, because they are the best of metalcores. but if you want to be smart and cost efficient, get pro model wheels and hot glue them.
you dont have to follow the trend of dual metalcores.

Yea someone should contact eagle to do another batch or couple of batches of wheels in 90A that would be sick.
everyone i no who has eagles has no problems with them
my friend has been ridin a pair of eagles for like 8 months and there both fine and like hes pretty harsh on wheels cause he tries to inwards heaps of shit and usually smashes onto the back wheel but his eagles havent chinked or de hubbed only wore down a few mm's and stained PU.
id go demons they feel really grippy like more grippy than eagles and are a farely cheap metal core or pro wheels
but theyd have to be hot glued or you'l destroy them i rode a brand new never been used pro model wheel on the back without hot gluing it and its fully destroyed the PU is fine but the core is shattered to pieces and that was in a few hours of riding lol

protos are heavy (for all you weight freaks) but theyre good, ive had demons since they came out and theyre fine, but one got flatspotted because i rode brakeless, i hear the newer ones are even better, demon ftw.... or eagle sigs x)
