Broken steel in my Supreme 190

Recommended Posts

Hello! I just cracked the steel in one skate in my supremes 190.  Do i need to replace it in both skates, or just in one and the sharpener can match them for me?  Any other steel except of LS3 that goes with this holder? I have a very small boot size and it's hard to get in my area.

Better to swap both and keep the old unbroken runner as a spare. Runners come in pairs so it's not like you can just buy one.

You can get LS3 or LS4 (similar 10' profile as LS3 but better steel). You can also get LS Fusion which has 9' radius and different steel composition which makes it lighter.

Put a new pair of runners in. I prefer LS2 but LS3 is also a good option but a little more expensive.  I have bad bad luck with LS Fusion blades.  Had one bend and wreck the holder. The other broke.

How old are they? Bauer will usually replace steel, even past the one year mark. I would get the LS3 or LS4 and replace both. 

From what I remember, Bauer blade warranty is 90 days and customer support is on the lower side of the scale... but worth trying, it does not cost much.

Where do you even come up up with stuff like this?

I bought them in January.  I think the 1 year mark is for the holder, not steel, but i'll email them anyway.

If memory serves me right, you both are "kinda" correct here. Bauer used to warranty their steel for one year (holders are still a one year warranty) if I'm not mistaken but reduced the warranty to 90 days last year. Bauer's website would definitely be up to date but other retailers must not have changed their website.

OP, if you bought them online from a retailer that still mentions a 1 year warranty on steel, you'd have a pretty good argument to get them replaced.
