About a week ago, one of the wheels broke off. The black plastic broke around the wheel assembly, but the wheel and holder were still intact. I glued it back in place using a good 2-part epoxy, but that repair only lasted for a few days, and then it broke off again.
Now I'm trying to decide what to do. I can:
1. Use the case without rolling it, just carry it using the handles. However, I hate how this makes my hand feel right before a gig.
2. Buy a cheap cart to wheel it on, but I really don't like those luggage carts. And I'm against adding new things to the rig that I have to carry to every gig.
3. Get the case professionally repaired, but it might be more cost effective in the long run to buy a new one, considering the zippers are already showing signs of wearing out.
4. Buy a flight case. Are there any flight cases out there with wheels which are recessed into the back edge of the case, rather than bolted on to the side? Also, is anyone aware of any Pelican-style molded case with wheels that would fit the C2 well, because I used to have a keyboard with a Pelican hard case and it was perfect- lightweight and very protective. I've checked the Pelican site and there doesn't seem to be any case that would be an acceptable fit.
Does anyone think that Nord would offer to repair my case for free or send me a new one? After all, they gave me an OS update to make my C2 sound just like C2D, and didn't charge anything for it!
