Are the lighter than the Rayspeed Ti cvds?
Are they stronger than them either?
What are the +'s to swithing to the TC4 ones?
After you pay for the bones and out drives and mill out your hex hubs there better be a good reason.
Just curious why all the hype.
Thanks in advance.

hi stephen... first and foremost on my mind when i switched to the TC4 bones was reliabilty and durability... i use to break the cvd pins on CGM and wore them out quite fast.

when i swicthed to the rayspeed MIP's but i broke 1 on the bones after 8 packs... only recently was i able to replace it.

weight for me is NOT an issue, as i run modified allmost all the time...

some would say the the alum bones would eventually wear out... but in my expereince with my XXXS, the MIP made bones also wore out, but it was, at least, very predicatble, unlike the steel ones, that break without warning... I've had several bad expierences with the steel ones.

... last "plus" but not really an issue... the TC4 bones look really really good on the BD !

BTW, i use the yoke blue alum on the rear.
