Comments about Roces SK-100 Inline Skates:
Two problems areas. (1) Poor support/spares and quality and (2) Comfort.
I wore the brake out on the 1st 15 mile skate. Really! Replacements are impossible to find. You design a unique wear part and then don't stock it. Makes sense. Inline Skates.net recommends using a Rollerblade brake. This is not a workable solution.
One lace broke after the 1st skate.
I have used Rollerblades for over 20 years with no discomfort issues. These skates are extremely uncomfortable. They might fit your feet but try them on before buying.
Definitely NOT a product I would recommend.

Comments about Roces SK-100 Inline Skates:
Like the skates however a nut that attaches the wheel frame to the boot was loose. The "nut" is a rectangular flat shape that tightens and wedges itself within the frame. Interesting engineering. I think I've been able to tighten it enough to make it acceptable. Based on the price of the skates, I felt this was better than shipping them back and waiting for a new pair that may have the same issue.

I have been skating for 59 years ,on inlines for 22yrs. I still use a set of Roces Atlantas, 2 prs of Pasis's and Riedell boots /w Atanta frames,(original bearings). But Roces has cut short on their product (mainly their boots).

Comments about Roces SK-100 Inline Skates:
The price for these skates was fantastic, about the price of buying wheels and bearings. A size 9 fits a size 10 foot. The large 100mm wheel provides a smooth ride and is great for long distances. It takes a little while to get use to the balance on the large wheels. These skates will increase your balance for snow skiing. It is a comfortable but less supportive boot fit. Longer wheel base equals less maneuverability. They make longer radius turns which is more similar to a snow ski turns.

Comments about Roces SK-100 Inline Skates:
At first I had my worries about this skate since there are no reviews here, on other net sites, nor on youtube. I thought that maybe it was a bad skate but took a chance and ordered them anyway. I was really worried about the frame being thin and causing flex but the aluminum frame is solid, it's 1/4" thick at the wheel base and slims up slightly going towards the boot at about 75% of 1/4". The wheels are 82A but feels soft like a 78A. The bearings are very sensitive and wants to roll at times when I'm just standing there. If your feet are wide go up a size because these boots seem to be made for narrow feet. If your feet are narrow, than order the size you normally wear. These are nice for cruising around at fast speeds but not meant for racing or terrain parks.
