My Review on the Custom Cruiser Wheel:

Cruiser Wheel - SUCCESS!
As many of you know, there is a new wheel in town. I got my Custom Choice Cruiser Wheel yesterday. It must have come while I was at IKEA getting a few little things, because when I came home, there was a big ol' box on the porch.

Earlier in the day I had spoken to Bourbon (one of the creators of this fabulous wheel) about the wheel and she suggested a few changes that I should make to ensure safety, as there have been changes in the wheel since she shipped it. I had compared it to the Stealth Wheel and Bourbon commented that I would probably change my mind and think it was much different than the stealth when I got it.

...Bourbon was RIGHT!!! This thing is REALLY different! When I opened up the package and I pulled out the wheel I noticed that the wheel is really wide (because I got the wide track option.) Its stand is also alot taller (another option I chose), which creates some awesome bounce! (But you can make it bouncier as ANOTHER option!!) I feel like the wheel joint is safer as well. It's covered and doesn't have moving parts exposed at all.

I put it in the Reptarium with Rodan last night and he was really checking it out. He climbed down the side of the reptarium and stuck out his hands. He grabbed onto the side of it and WHOOP! down he went. You could see on his face, "Oh! It's a WHEEL!" and then he was ready to play. He jumped on the top, he ran upside down on the outside, he spun around on the inside. All of it was a new kind of fun for him. He loves the bounce, the stability and by the way he ran ALL NIGHT, I'm guessing he just loves everything about it.

I could talk all day about this wheel because it's AWESOME.

Buy yours by here and TELL BOURBON I SENT YOU!

Just to give you guys an idea of how great and how DIFFERENT this wheel is, here are some pictures. (And at the bottom, a video)
  

This is the Custom Cruiser Wheel that I ordered.

The front shows the large opening, the height, the stable base

and the safe connector for the ball bearings.

The back shows how none of the moving parts are exposed.

They are all covered and completely safe.

Since I have one of each "safe" wheel, I thought I'd show a couple comparison pictures.

This one shows the height, and the complete difference in the wheels.

(From left to right, Custom Choice Cruiser, Stealth, Wodent Wheel)

You can see how different the bases are; also the bearing covers,

the size of the track and the altogether craftsmanship of them all.

(I'd just like to say, that this is in NO way a knock at the stealth. I love my stealth, but I do think they are completely different wheels because of their construction. I just wanted to show the differences.)

Here's a video as well. I just wanted to show how they spin differently and the movement of the Custom Cruiser.
