    Alright peeps. I recently have acquired a 96 w900L. It has all the bells and whistles including the lovely smart wheel with the rubber pad. Ugh. And of course it is worn out. What is anyone doing to replace these? I haven't been able to find anywhere that offers a replacement. Please help. Thanks.

    I've been looking for something to put in my PornStar, too. I would dearly love to get rid of the plastic wheel that leaches out oils that blister my hands.

    I have been looking for a year and a half. When you find something, please let the rest of us know.

    I'm just not good at internet shopping. I can't find the smart wheel adapters.

    I actually contacted grant. And they claimed they quit making anything to do with smart wheels. However, it seemed as if I was dealing with a couple of inexperienced employees.

    A new smart wheel is not alot of cash, you will need to change the center pad as well. send me your serial number(last 6) and i'll get you a couple of part numbers.
