| Lo's Megas are/have been wasted for some time. He's on his 2nd set of my old large FATS (he recently stole the ones from my Gelatos). Santa is probably gonna throw some new rollers in his stocking but I don't want to waste the $$ on another set of Megas. Should I get the SFP wheels or the Diamond Cut's instead?? The DCs only have abec5s but I can easily throw some new bearings in them. OR should I just byte the bullet and get another set of Megas that will ultimately end up farting like the rest?? He hates rolling on my FATS and steals his lil' bro's BDs whenever he's not looking but that always ends up in a bloody battle to the death. |

I was just recently wondering what I'm going to do with all the mega wheels I have since I don't use them much: i mainly ride on BD's (for street), rumbles (with super smooth titanium RUSH bearings, for malls), megavertz, or my own custom freespin wheels, meaning all the mega's I get from the new toxics or whatever I buy tend to sit unused. I'd happilly send you a pair of plain mega's for nothing if you'd pay the postage, but sadly UK postage costs are probably more than you'd pay for a new pair in the US, but I could always check if you're interested?
Then again, since you mentioned large fats I'm guessing you're talking about small mega's, and most of mine are medium, my bad. . I have some small mega's but I tend to give them to young relatives.
Basically, what I'd suggest is, if it's possible, get him some megavertz from you-know-who - they never get air bubbles.. . problem solved  |

No Kids, All the wheels for you... Problem solved :O
And I am being drastic, I do not approve of killing children but do what must be done O.o
But I would get the DC's and bearings. You may want to get an extra pair for the lot of 'em though, just because you may be regretting it when one of them breaks their pair... |

Get them both some Rumbles for the winter, use the wheels everywhere, and call it good.  |

| I thought rumble wheels were 1 pc molded?? Do they have the same 'core' issue?? I'm really leaning towards the Diamonds though. The SFPs are hard to find in LG for some reason. |

nope, alex was the first to brake his on vert.
mine broke from flatland spinning and such.
Theyre really good for just rolling forwards. |
