I see Ludwig revamped the breakbeats kit a bit. I see this most commonly referred to as the "2022 Breakbeats". According to their website they changed the hoops to wood, the bass drum claws are now die cast, and the wing nut has a different design, as well as I'm sure a few other updates.
Does anyone have any more info on this or experience with the 'old' vs the 'new'?
I'll be honest, I had one of the first gen breakbeats kits and it was the biggest POS I've ever wasted money on in my entire time playing drums. The hardware was garbage, the hoops were severely undersized, and the wing nuts stripped almost immediately. However I really liked the sizes of the kit.
If they did in fact update some of these failure points then I may be interested in revisiting the breakbeats.
