i guess the anodizing on primo spokes make them get loose easier, but im only going by what i heard...i heard it a long time, btw.

i would rather the fly cranks. in my opinion they are designed better, and look better.

You are hardly going to notice anything with a spoke weather is its bad or not. And where is this news of people having trouble with wombolts coming from? Everyone I have talked to has been extremely happy with them. The flys havent been out long enough to tell if they are acctually that great.

yeah, i could care less what spokes i have.

the wombolts have only been out a little bit longer than the flys have.

theyre both great cranks though.

I've looked and they are Prolite spokes. I gues they're just a rip off of the primo spokes.

Yeah, i know now becuase i got with it and checked them out.

I still think i would stick with Profiles if i got new cranks, which won't happen soon.

I'd go with Flys. Then Wombolts. Then Profiles.

i love my profiles...the only complaint is the the part surrounding the bolt gets dented in making it hard to tighten/loosen.

Get the hop up kit. It will fix your problems.

Oh, yeah.

Well i think that aside from those flush spacers you can use the compression bolt things which are flush with that weird edge thing on the cranks that dents...
