Bought some Tacx ones from my LBS that were cheaper - didn't last any longer mind you!

I'm using [url= https://clee-cycles.co.uk/cc/catalog/index.php?manufacturers_id=10&osCsid=jvm9p77uf2ps5qfbtguanml0u1 ]KCNC[/url] after the first replacement set from another supplier didn't fit despite listing '06 XO on the packaging.

How well do the KCNC ones last? SRAM ones don't seem to last in South Pennine grinding paste :-/

I'm using the KCNC Ceramic and they are fine after 8 months but I'd expect that from any set of Jockey wheels really.

Do the Tacx come in a blue box?

What year X0 have you got? I can always find out what which set I bought that didn't fix, if you gave a mech' later than 2006 they may fit

How do the KCNC teeth last? The last SRAM ones I used had serviceable bearings when I changed them; the problem was that the teeth were worn to points.
