i really wish it would just poof to 6 months later so i can hear reviews and junk of how these held up
i have mine.
*poof*
my dropouts are cracked and they didnt seem like the were gunna last long, but i was gunna try a 9 stair. instead of a new scooter i just bought alex's reinforcements.
my dropouts havent cracked or bent any more than they were and i believe it has added some time to my deck.
positives
+ super strong
+ has made my deck last much longer
+ very sexxxy
+ not really heavy.
+ very easy to put on
+ still slides pretty good when grinding.
negatives
- takes like 2-5 minutes longer to change a wheel.
- after a while of riding, the bottom will get beat up and look a little ugly, but you can fix if you get grind rails.
overall i believe that these reinforcements are worth it because they have made my deck last, and little things about appearance or taking a minute to change a wheel is worth it.
btw if you are getting these, remember that you have to loosen the other bolts holding on the reinforcement if you have trouble taking off the back axle bolt.
