Don’t worry about that.

There is horrible condition yo-s that still work amazing, if you ding the yo-yo or scrape the metal it’ll be fine, if you are scared of it hitting the floor then cut your strings a little shorter.

Man why are people calling them bi-metals.

If you were talking about a Metal Rimmed YYJ, You probably want a new breed, Hitman or X-Convict. Speeders have terrible vibe and are very unsmooth. DM’s have a terribly tiny gap, and can snag a lot.

I really recommend the new breed, because of the response and the massive gap, its probably the most unresponsive metal rimmed yoyo you can get. But the x-convict/hitman with shims and flowable/yyj silicone response should be just as good.

Hitman, Dark Magic, and X-ConVict are all excellent metal-rimmed yoyo’s. The hitman is my personal favorite. So brilliant.

Here. Use these questions so we can fit a bi-metal to you.

1. What size do you prefer? (Big, small, medium, etc)
2. What shape do you prefer? (Be specific: Round Butterfly, Flat Rims, pointy shape, H-Shape)
3. What response do you prefer? (Silicone, O-Ring, Hybrid, Pad, etc)
4. Do you like to mod/maintain it?
5. Does color matter?
6. How does your style relate to the yoyo? (What kind of tricks do you like to do?)
7. What is your price range?
8. What is your skill level?

Well you need to try to get some preference of size and shape because those are the major differences between yoyos.

Going by your preferences, I would say Kickside. It really is a great player for the price. The Legacy is also an excellent player, it’s cheaper and more durable than metal-rimmed yoyos. However, since you like round shapes, I’m not sure if you’d care for its flat rims.
