Unless they made their shitty frame spacers (rockers) out of metal this time, they’re still crap. The main problem with GC frames is not the diameter of the axles, but the crappy rockers, which are made of very soft plastic that warps and stretches very easily, making your axle rock around the axle holes. This in turn fucks ups your wheels and bearings, since they rub against the inner walls of the frame. It seems that GC has forgotten that the primary function of frames is to hold wheels, not grinding. My bullets grind very well, but skating around feels slow as shit because of the aforementioned problem. The frames would be perfect if that were fixed.
