I assume you know that the end cap on the PVC pipe screws off. We had a tech day recently and had a heck of a time trying to open the package until I thought about unscrewing the end cap.

Only one question- how long do the wheels usually last? Are they lifetime, or 30,000 miles or....? (Obviously this varies on how many times the hit the pavement, but anyone have a ballpark?)Anyone? Anyone......? Bueller.....? Bueller.....?
Well my little brother (18yrold) rides his skate board everyday for a couple of miles. He said he goes through new wheels every 2 years or so. So since the wheels are basically the same...I figure they should out last your vette. Since I probably use those little wheels more than anyone...I'll keep you posted.
:D
