ok you guys gotta understand, WHEELS ARE WHEELS! theres no fuckin super indestructable wheels that will last forever. eventually they're gonna break or dehub. just ride em till they break then get over it fuck haha

Its not easy to get pics of a wheel dehubbing. Especially if its only slightly dehubbing and not that bad yet. If theyre really starting to dehub again, pics of full dehubs will start popping up.

yeah, i didnt say mine was anywhere close to fully dehubbing. its just like peeling off the core a bit in one spot thats like 3/4 inch long.

he can't replace every part everyone breaks, none of his stuff has a lifetime guarantee because the shit we do strains the hell out of the parts. Everyone expects that just because they paid more than they're used to that they get replaced.... Look at bmx, you could spend $120 on cranks and blow them out in a few days doing some gnarly stuff, think the bmx company would give a shit how many days old it is?

I've said it before the problem is that we have a younger market, the kids getting proto, frid, eagle, and everything else are kids that either don't have jobs yet or aren't making much at their job. When you guys have to spend money it's hard to save it up but that really isn't Andrew or anyone else's problem.

I understand that but I dont understand how you can forget to weld the most important part on bars.

some BMX parts are garunteed for life which is pretty cool

ya all the fit parts have a lifetime guarantee and also tons of odyssey parts and a lot of other bike parts have lifetime guarantees that would be awesome if it would happen to scooters but scootering isnt as big as bmxing but hopefully it will soon be.

fixed :)

oh and guys only the HIC crowbars have the warranty. Someday everything will though. Just cant afford it at this point.

Andrew does a good job replacing broken stuff anyways. And I know he will replace the unfinished bars no questions asked.
