Why do people say vilanos explode? I've never had a problem with mine, what usually happens with them?

Yeah people, I know i could've done alot better, stop reminding me

but I have it now and it rides fine,

btw what do people mean by "explode" ?

p.s. Im not getting the orange wheels, so the bikes gonna be all white again, I might add brown handlebars, seat, and maybe brown wheels (or tires) too.

bleh semantics. Vilanos don't really explode.. it's more like an extremely rapid (and dangerous) disintegration. The giant cloud of dust makes it looks like an explosion.

Take pics before it happens!

Oh my GOD I want an Orange Julius right now. I think the last one around here went out of business over 10 years ago. Thanks for making me crave something I can never have.
