I would get one if they done like 31 or 32 The publically available Berlinwoods are all 29mm I think. There are wider versions but they aren't obtained by normal means. |

| that's what i thought winklers were soft wheels.
but mines seem to be hard as a rock.
they are winklers because the graphic has worn off and they have bearings. |

Also on another note what are the softest fb wheels, I was gonna get winklers But have just read that they are hard, I'm looking for a softer wheel Chances of getting one before a public release (if there is one at all) is rather low. I'm not sure how many people in the UK have one, if any at all. They are usually obtained from the team members themselves. Kerry and Thom would probably give a good answer to this question. If you're looking at soft wheels, Close Up and Oak do urethane wheels. I personally prefer the Close Up ones to Oak V2s and RVs. Even though I am sponsored by Close Up, I had my first set back in 2008 and had been riding them for a while. The main reason I think Close Up wheels are better than Oak is because of the Oak wheels shape on all of their models leave the truck axles exposed and it would scratch up my desk a bit if I rode them. Their earlier models also had a bit of bumpiness to them. |

Can be as short as 1 week or as long as a month. I've ordered a lot of stuff from the US and most of the things come after a week to a week and a half. I think there was one order that took 2 weeks and the longest wait I had was for an order from No Comply that took a month and me and Todd were emailing each other like crazy to see wtf was up. Another order from No Comply only took 11 days so I still don't know why that first one took a month. ...and if someone is scamming you, then the time is infinite |

i hope they are winklers. Can't be winklers if they have a graphic on them. Unless he put one on them i think they are they look and feel like them, but maybe he did put a graphic on these things. and Jacob, no i'm not talking about Oaks. |
