Default Roller Ski companies belong to a small industry. Good news for Jenex.

I'm not getting this "not skate wheels at all".

That page says their 80mm wheels are 24mm wide -- same as the wheels I just
bought for wet pavement with my inline skates.

What makes them different from inline wheels?

True, they would work on skates, but at that price they are almost
twice the price of best skating wheels and you need all 10 and they
last a month of good training - enough reason to look for something
else..

Skating wheels are made to very close tolerances for bearing-spacer
and if they
do not spin freely, throw them out. Rollerski wheels are not and not
need to be.
I actualy heard sombody spin the wheel for 4(!)min. before stopping.
