  1. hi all

    i've had my Profile wheel for a long time now, and just recently
    snapped my Yuni frame on the Whistler trails during some jumping.

    I am gonna buy a koxx devil frame as a replcaement. I read on the koxx
    site that all their frames take 40/42mm bearings, so does this mean
    that the devil frame can defintiely take Profile's 40mm bearings with
    no problems? I read on UDC US that you can get shims for 40mm bearings
    to convert it into 42mm, is this only crucial for frames that can
    purely ONLY take 42mm?

    Just wondering if its possible or is koxx just lying? yeah people mite
    say 'whats the worst that can happen', but if the bearing housings
    really cant take 40mm because its the tiniest bit too small it can
    cause big problems and totally mess the uni up cos there is wobble or
    irregular fitting.

    any help'd be great thanks.

    Connor
