Review on ๐Ÿ›ผ Enhance Your Skating Experience with Alemon 2-Piece Inline Roller Skating Shoe Energy Strap Replacements: Available in Black, Blue, and Pink! by Paul Milonas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

But well done. the best in the sport

I purchased these to replace a broken strap on my Rollerblade Twister Edge skates while waiting for OEM straps which are currently out of stock from the supplier where I bought the skates. These are good substitutes. The strap itself is the same width, but! It appears that the screw placement standard differs slightly between the Rollerblade and these Chinese counterparts. You could do better if you drill an inner hole to move it around a bit, but of course it would be better if they just fitted! Since they are temporary, for now I just used an external screw to secure them. Interestingly, they appear to be modeled after the Flying Eagle's straps and buckles, and if you're considering replacing the Flying Eagles' ankle strap, they should be perfect. The kit even includes screws and nuts to replace the rivets on the skates that are supplied in this way. So if you have OEM skates and straps, $3 or $4 difference I would say go with the originals. But in a pinch for Flying Eagle or other Chinese/metric skates, they're fine.

Pros
  • toe braces & pegs
Cons
  • ugly packaging
