How about a 450g one with sealed bearings, looks kinda nice, but can't find anyone distributing it here, Arestic Boo Hub

Anyone know anything about Arestic? They seem to be part of Ares, but unofficially...

Billy, how do you find the Odyssey one, is there a lot of slack? I'd like to try one, but am afraid the slack will mean I end up on my arse even more often than now..

I don`t find a problem with the little bit of slack that there is, it just rides like a quiet freewheel, but I rode a coaster for years so I`m used to it a bit anyway  ;)
