Will your replacement base kit work with older wheels?Updated 20 days ago
The replacement base kit that we currently sell (Gen 7) has been tested and found to work fine with our Generation 6 wheels. It can also work with the Gen 5, but not especially well—while the wheel does not come off the track, it has an exacerbated wobble and makes a constant rubbing noise. While not overly loud, the extra noise might be cause for irritation for some. However, we have also gotten feedback from some customers that have tried this and they said that it is working great, so it may be worth a try if your current base is completely unusable.
Unfortunately, we no longer have models older than the Gen 5 to test against, but due to the issues with the Gen 5 and the fact that the Gen 1-4 wheels are slightly different in size, they probably won't work very well with the Gen 7 base.
