Fell Apart, Friday, 02 February 2007

The balls fell out of mine in a matter of 2 weeks. They were not that fast anyway. Definitly not worth over $20

I've had a pair for five years. Not as fast as bones but are strong and grease up real nicely. I'd go with bones if you really need the speed otherwise these things work.
