I remember seeing it but I thought someone had modified a Wodent with the running track of a Stealth - mind you, I was sitting on the floor across the room looking between people. Had a long discussion with a friend on if we were going to modify her Wodents the same way cause she really liked the look of that wheel.  There's actually a modification that you CAN do to a wodent to kinda do that (but it's NOT as good of a wheel still  ) You can find that here: http://www.glidercentral.net/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/571254/gonew/1#UNREAD

I never received my Wodent wheels so no modifications. I'm kinda upset about the wheel situation though. Anyways, I would love to be a tester for anyone who has new stuff for Suggies! My little Donna was inside her barrel of Monkeys bucket pulling all her fleece inside with her and Buddy loves anything new. He's always the first to try new toys out when I put them in the cage. So keep me in mind...LOL!!!

You can order a wheel now and it will go out in the next few days. The only thing is it's not on our website yet. It is taking time getting it loaded up since there are so many options you can add to it. That is why it's called The Custom Cruiser. If you email or call Bourbon she can walk you through the options and you can place your order with her. Our specila SGGA pricing will be good till Sept.1st. We are getting wheels made up and out the door as we ge the orders in.

We have a wheel that looks exactly like that. It is an older wheel that is called the Rowdy Wheel. It is larger than the Stealth but the has the Wodent type front. The Rowdy Wheel is no longer made but I've always wanted more like it. The gliders love it.  The Rowdy Wheel has the plastic (?) track like the Stealth. Does this new one have a wire track?

I did look at this wheel at the SGGA - in fact, I ordered one. *waiting impatiently now* It looks only superficially like a stealth in that it is made with bucket lids. From what I understood, the bearings are not in the wheel like most current wheels, but in their own place. It looked like a small hairdryer on the back. Not only was it silent, but the bearing house also gave the gliders a place to stand.  It is a cool wheel. I can't wait to see how it stands in comparison to my 3 stealths - and if the gliders like it! It is not a modification of anything, but it's own, unique style!

we took the best ideas of all the wheels and then came up with our own. We have have pcv coated wire track or the plastic track like the rowdy. This wheel has no place for a glider to get his body or tail caught. We have put the bearing encased in the back of the wheel. It has been in the testing stage since April. What was premiered at the SGGA was months of revamping and improving.

Once we figure out what all the pieces cost then we can give a more acurate price. More than likely the wheel will only go up a few bucks. We want tostay competative to the other wheels.

does anyone know if this one slides across the cage like the stealth or does the solid base reduce that?

Up high and gives more clearance for hanging onto the outside and spinning around as the other runs! But in reference to your question.....I would think any wheel of any type will slide across the cage as long as a suggie uses it...no matter what type of base unless it is mounted somehow.

The solid base is heavy enough that it does not slide across the cage floor. Pricing and all info is on the TGI store site. We are still working on uploading pictures. There is one I believe JackieChanMom has it The site is not working properly for me...there is no store tab(there was the other day) and if I search "wheel" in the search it does give me the wheel but says to call for pricing.
