Really Liking The Romeo 2s

Really, a milling process? I would have never guessed. They seem like they would have been made the same way. I love them just as equally as my juliets.
 
im not sure of the details but i know they changed the manufacture process for the R2 over the previous models.

and yeah i love the design. was the true "Half X"... the actual HalfX should be part of the Wire line.. no actual Xmetal
styling cues at all.

I owned a set of half-xs.......i turned around and sold them as soon as possible. Couldn't stand the spring hinges and not even the nosepiece being a "x" design like x squared, juliet, and r1? Should have never even been sold as an x-metal. I completly agree

yeah Xmetal as a material was used in the "Why" line, as well as the lugs on the Scar. Theres no reason it had to be an Xmetal, besides maybe a money-grab move.
