I know that the Uly (X and XP) models have "re-inforced" wheels - but I am wondering if the XB wheels (XB9/XB12/X/TT/etc...) are actually different in color???

XT wheels = Black
X/XP wheels = Magnesium

XB9 and others are they a littler, brighter silver (than the 12X wheels)?

thanks

The reinforced wheels were only available in the magnesium tone, the lighter wheels were every other color option.

So the XT wheels weren't the heavy version?

Are all of the '10 wheels 3 bearing, or just the Uly's? Amongst my parts cache I have a black 2010 wheel and another mag colored that has black sealed bearings. If the black wheel is not 3 bearing I suppose I'm just as well off putting on the one with the upgraded bearings when I get a new back tire mounted up.

Most 2010 wheels are 3 bearing, including all Uly colors. The 2010 wheel was available in a few other colors, but not all the same ones the 09 wheels were.

The 2010 wheel also requires a different axle. It is a dark colored axle.
