I got the hang of the wheel numbers eventually but I'm not much of a gear nerd, as long as it does what I want, that's cool with me! <br /><br />xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04497757713749752185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7053225162615077088.post-76837123712759148932014-01-07T10:27:03.212+00:002014-01-07T10:27:03.212+00:00Just realised this post is from March!

Roller Derby is one of those things that only ever seems to come up in American TV shows, so knowing some one who actually does it should be interesting. <br /><br />As for your wheels dilemma, sounds VERY much like the first time I tried to buy skate board wheels WWAAAAYYY back when. So good luck with that one! Haha! <br /><br />Good luck and happy skating. Hatterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15329142301162036617noreply@blogger.com
