Default Re: Your thoughts on silent spinners?

A lot of hams will fly out of the open wheels at first but tend to stop doing it with practise when they learn to brake! If you can make sure there's nothing hard to fall on when she comes out it might be ok to try it for a bit longer.
It seems to be sheer luck with the Trixie wheels whether you get a noisy one or a quiet one, some are almost silent others really noisy & there isn't really anything you can do about the noisy ones, veg oil on works for some squeaky wheels, it won't help with the rattling noise.
The silent runner wheels are expensive but worth the investment if you can afford it, totally silent & really well made, easy to clean too.
