I have been riding these wheels since before I went to greenport, some time in early July. It is now September, so they've lasted since then... Two months.
More than ample time to review, seeing as I've ridden all sorts of terrain with them (street, vert, park), and have ridden most wheels, this is a completely, unbiased review for them.
First impressions are... these wheels are amazning looking. I got the Royal blue ones, which are sexy as hell, in 110mm size. The core has a similar design to Eagles, but are MUCH thicker than standard Eagles, and about the same thickness as Sig Eagles.
The bearing spaces are really really tight. Much moreso than Protos or Eagles. It took me about 3 tries putting in and taking out my bearings to get it right (using a bolt and socket to get them in, like a press.) Once they were secured right, they spun amazingly.
The speed with stock bearings is slightly less than that of Protos, but slightly more than Eagles. Right in the middle. Same with grip, they grip a lot more than Eagles (In my experience at least, Eagles slide out a lot on me), but less than Protos. Although they seemed much faster on street than park. It might've just been me.
They come in multiple colors (green, blue, yellow, etc?) and designs (spoked/slotted), so there are many choices to choose from depending on weight and whatnot. The fullcores weigh much less than Protos, and only ounces more than Eagles. Again, right in the middle of two main wheels.
They are fairly cheap as well. Less than Eagles or Protos.
All in all, I would rate them an 8.2, due to the longevity of mine (and still going strong), the looks, and the price all seem to be a good deal.
I'd suggest these wheels to anyone.
