Roller Purchase and Advice
My Tacx Antares rollers finally gave up on me with a cracked roller 
Based on this experience I've decided it's probably best to buy a set with aluminium rollers as a replacement.
In your experience would this be the right way to go and has anyone got any comments on the list below (the Planet X rollers look identical to the CycleOps, which also look identical to a set made by Sportcrafters for even more money?!):

The Cycleops and Jet-Black apparently come with a lifetime warranty which is obviously appealing.
Thanks in advance for any help.
