    Hi all I'm Mickey Masterblader from Orpington.
    Have been blading since it started and been around a long long time. Seen a few merchants from the other sites. Ride a tweeked 04 blade and have been taking it easy with just 70k miles notched up.

    Sold those wheels dont do the mileage anymore.
    Bike now feels like a slug with the standard set.

    Lightweight wheels are the only extra that effects a bike in all depts: handling, acceleration, braking, suspension and overall less wear and tear on other parts due to the reduction in unsprung weight. Highly recommended

    Just be careful if you're buying secondhand especially on baywatch.
    If you know the guy and the history is fine otherwise buy from new.
    Lightweight wheels come in forged ally, mag and carbon which is the most expensive.
    Good luck Dan
