They used to be good, then wahoo messed it up with their new bearing design. Why would we protect sellers rather than buyers. It’s a forum for conversations.

You're talking about a completely different product and company - original Speedplays were/are excellent.
Wahoo bought speedplay recently and changed the designs, the new versions apparently have a huge failure rate, so purchasing some of these Wahoo versions, without a warranty (unless they were mega cheap) would be madness.

on the contrary to this thread I've never had an issue with speedplays over the last 8 or so years, all pairs of which I have bought second hand. They're super easy and cheap to service even when the bearings do break down and the newer versions of them with the full diameter bowties (which this thread is for) seem to have resolved the issue with the plastic bodies eventually wearing down.
