Hey everybody,
I am new to this forum, since I just started to look for a new pair of X-Metals. With shock and awe I now realized, that the line will be discontinued.
I own a 1999 1st gen X-Metal XX TiO2 which started to show patchy spots that looked like dirt at first. It got worse and worse and I decided to polish the frame. While that might have destroyed any collectors value (plasma finish is now polished) at least they look decent again.
Thank God I bought a few replacement rubber parts when they were still available for a few bucks. However, the ones that I have been keeping in the box started to get all greasy. It looks like the unobtanium is showing some sort of wear even though they have never been touched. Do you guys have the same problem? If so, what do you do against it? I want to keep them in mint condition as as long as possible.
Also, are there any dealers out there who still sell Oakley Romeo 2.0?
Hope you guys can help me
