Just as well I've got LOADS of spares now, though no hubs

More ordering to do as I don't want to put the standard plastic hubs back on, though they're the last resort

You're a fine one to talk, - 10foot jumps from skateboard halfpipes

And how much did it cost to repair your truck after you ran it into a wall
