Demolition is cheaper and a tad lighter.
Durability I would bet is similar.

Rotator sucks dick ( had it )
Primo is easier and no adjustable slack = good

Don't they both run the same internals since being khe clones or did each company change it a little?

He had the v1, which was an aluminum axle and he got it factory seized
That issue was fixed like a few weeks after and that problem no longer exists

I know 3 people that have ridden the demo rotator for a few months without any problems. It's definitely reliable. I havent heard anything about the primo but It's probably just as good!

What Steve said , pretty shady even considering I emailed and asked for a replacement axle or at least a "crash replacement" price after sending pics and conditions and they pretty much blew me off like I was an 8 year old asking for stickers . Wait for the Merritt coaster with the lifetime bearing warranty !

I've had both. After a year of riding with the RotatoR the Driver broke and 180dist replaced it for free. After that it had extended engagement problems but eventually fixed itself. Just recently I got a Freemix and so far have had no problems.
The only pro to the RotatoR is it comes with the slack adjustment washers. Sadly, the freemix does not.

I was looking at the Merritt Freecoaster right when you posted that comment. I ride with right foot forward and grind on the right side which is why I want a LHD, but I can't seen to find any that are LHD because they are all sold out? Any places that have them left in stalk??
