A Dance with Dream Steam

Post by TTHLRMatt » Tue Nov 26, 2013 9:06 pm

Dream Steam have just brought out a new product. They have these new steel wheels out soon called "bored" wheels or something of that ilk, I dont quite remember. They say they have "special bearings" and so on. They are very attractive wheels I must admit and I dont put down their claims but I am toying with the idea of purchasing a set and putting them to test. Surely a new design with bearings and so on will mean a better build *cough* *cough*. Should I, Shant I? :? ;)

Nothing much new about them. Those type of bearings have been around for a long time... Probably new to DS but the concept isn't
No one expects the SPANISH ACQUISITION!!!

Matt, please don't try to stir things up with regards to Dream Steam products. There are plenty of debates on the forums here and the Mamod Forums with regards to the subject already so another one isn't really going to get anywhere and will lead to a repeat of all the other threads.

Sorry James, I just wanted to find your opinions, even thought most said no, I think I will have a go!
