A kid came into the workshop with a brand-newish wheel off of a thruster recently. I can't quite explain in words how noodly the spokes were, but y'know those crazy-arm blow-up guys outside car dealerships? Yeah, that. I got nailed by 2 cars over the past two summers and if you were to combine how out of true my front wheels were from those incidents, it still wouldn't match up. Screw walmart with a rusty pipe, they're putting people in danger with such shoddy product (not that this is news).
