Roller Skis at competitive prices
Mark; What a nice selection of rollerskis at the site you referred!
The Speed Skate R100 - medium fast - appear to have exactly the same rubber wheels that Nordic Skater carries ( same size, same aluminum hub). For anyone wanting to slow their skis down, using rubber wheels is the way to go, though manipulating your bearings with grease is far less expensive. Pete. |

Hey Serge, how do you disassemble ABEC bearings to put the grease
inside? ANy special tools? Where do you get the grease? |

Roller Skis at competitive prices
Well, your original question is not clear. Are you talking new or
used? Skate, classic, both or combi? With or w/o bindings? For new rollerskis and sales on bindings, there are all sorts of xc ski shops. Gear West, Reliable Racing, Finn Sisu, Ski Rack, tobjornsport.com, Nordic Skater, Cross Country Ski Shop of Grayling, Berkshire Outfitters, Enduro Rollerskis, and probably a few others. Watch for early season sales. For used, try skinnyski.com classifieds, NENSA (equipment), ebay and here. OTOH, given how long most rollerskis last, biting the bullet for a new pair and saving by getting the bindings for a little less is not a bad investment. Most shops can mount them for you for a modest fee. Gene agale wrote: Back to my original question, anyone have anymore good sites or contacts for the purchase of rollerskis for good prices. Thanks to those who already notified me! Adam PBDoyle wrote: Jeff: Yeah, you can get a lot of what you need from NS. But, that being said, you can get duplicate axles/cap screws for just about anything from a good hardware store; frame spacers are easy to make; that leaves the frame and the wheels. Nordic Skate is the only supplier I can find for 100mm "rubber" wheels; Skates-away.com sells a 125mm solid rubber wheel that I will probably try this Spring or summer on the low hole of my Aero 150 frame; it'll be a bumpier ride for sure.
