Manx vs 3DM Avalon comparison
How do Manx wheels compare with 3DM Avalons? Shape, offset, speed, grip, wear, etc.
Will they fit on aluminum Seismics?

... back to the comparison ...
Avalons are great wheels
- but -
Manx are better
(IMHO)
.......Better grip
.......Better slide / re-hookup
.......More predictable / no lip buckle
.......Faster
(like I said, IMHO)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dan bought 3dm with the wheel designalready established.
Why mess with a winning wheel? Now Chicken has come in with a
better wheel.
I'd like to see what Dan's R&D comes up with in response (or Chris
for that matter).
Speaking of ... What about the Grippins niche? No competitors yet?
Who else is going to come out with a center-set performance wheel?
