V2 Retro Classic Rollerski Feedback?
I'm thinking about getting a pair of the three-wheel V2 SR 100 Retro
Classic or Aero Retro Classic rollerskis this spring and am looking for some feedback from anyone using either rollerski. (Apologies if thinking spring this time of year is heresy, but the pitiful snowfall thus far in my neck of the woods has me already longing for rollerskiing.) First, how's the durability of the "never-go-flat" SR 100 tires on the SR 100 Retro Classic? Is the never-need-air feature of these tires reason enough to go with the SR 100 Retro Classic over the Aero Retro Classic? And, for anyone who is using the calf-activated break, is the brake more effective with the SR 100 tire or the Aero tire? Is skier weight a factor in recommended use of one ski over another, as it seems to be with Aero 125 vs. 150? (I'm 185 lbs.) Also, since I'll be using Salomon Profil bindings, I'm wondering if the weight of either rollerski warrants a stiffer toe bumper. Go with the classic yellow or the skate red? |
