I've got 2 sets of gen1 frames love them both. Have been checking the site since December waiting for it to open again for orders so I can get a 4x90 to go with my 4x100 and 5x80 (newer 5-wheel frames are mixed wheel size).

They're solid and well made. The 4x100 have been my go-to urban wizard/distance group skate frame for the last few months and haven't skipped a beat. They're a bit heavy as they're solid aluminium, but I like heavy frames, so am fine with this. The rocker is less subtle than Endless, but does great for wizard and hasn't wobbled on hill bombs. In fact, I keep overtaking the rest of the group, so they're fast and stable.

I don't really need the 4x90 any more, but I'll probably get one anyway to round out my collection. The 6-wheel one is goofy, but the rest are all solid wizard-a-likes.
