    Haha, I've actually had good luck with every white puzzle I've had (white pyraminx is awesome, there's my old type A which is just amazing (the one Harris gave 9/10 on the cube test), and there's my type F).

    I'm color neutral for plastics.
    haven't tried anything other than black and white. It was a bit difficult at first, but it shouldn't be too bad.
    I used to solve computer cubes slowly. Best averages of 12: 2x2x2: 4.155 3x3x3: 14.74 Squat: 415 Bench: 275 Deadlift: 465

    Continue breaking it in, maybe loosen the springs a bit.

    The link for that cube is here, if you are having trouble finding it.

    No cube is perfect. They will always lock up some how. The Type D cube with the Type A core cuts corners fairly well, so maybe you should turn more accurately....

    Yes, breaking in the cube more will help the cube cut corners a little better, and adjusting the tension can also change how frequently the cube locks up.

    If you paid close attention, www.cubefans.com used to have Type D cubes. I actually bought one from there . Lots of people are saying that CubeFans is out of stock of Type D cubes, because they're becoming so popular. I don't really know....

    so, if everyone says white D cubes are better than the black ones, then what is the difference? If the difference isn't so much different, I'll just stick with the black ones since my look ahead is better on those. Plus, I like black cubes better.
