well their a rather well know company so i would say they must be good quality
if you race MX and are serious then I would get a lonestart or PRM from what iv'e heard. If you just recreational ride it should be fine for you
lone star's have a life time warinty. and i have had my lsr axle for 3 years and been through sometuff landing and all and its still good

like mixmaster said if your just ridding trails,backyard,dunes ext you will be just fine but if your gonna race a lot spend the extra 100 on a lsr. and the lifetime warrantys are actually good for one replacement not as many as u need

All axles break. PERIOD. If you race ,then chances are at some point, you WILL break an Axle or at least bend one. I personally have a Durablue, I am getting ready to ship out and warrenty .

dura break! you'll never have to buy another axle if you get a rpm! Just about every single axle that I see at the track that gets busted are stock or durabreaks. Lsr are here and there but few and far between and i've never seen a rpm break.

Watch earlier Huevos vids and notice that everyones axles are either severely bent and wobbles all over the place, or they break at some point in the vid. I know they are riding hard, but that wouldnt happen with a Dominator II or even an axcalibur.

My brother put a Durablue on his Z400 and it lasted only 1 week before he jumped and got about 3 feet of air and bent it bad. At least it has a lifetime warranty, but it's only good for one time.

I have seen an RPM break and it was a DII the supposedly unbreakable one.....:macho
Run what ever you want to that you can afford....all axles will bend and or break under certain circumstances
hell I have a durable and it's stilll streight after my last crash and most everything else wasnt!!:ermm:
