    You can find cheap chassis anywhere (think cheap old skates on an auction website) and mount them yourself for under $30 if you want. It honestely depends on how much you want to spend and the quality you are looking for. It is like asking, "How much does a car cost?

    It really all depends on how much you want to spend. I converted a pair of Easton EQ50's for $325 total (skates,chassis,shipping,tax).

    I wear Supreme 175's on ice. I found the fit on the EQ50's to be very similar once I baked them. I play once a week right now and I felt the upgrade was worth the $. I plan on this being the last pair of skates I will own (I am 32) so I wanted top of the line. The tounge is better and the inside has better materials (from what I have researched). There was definitely a difference in feel but might not be worth the $ to you.

    You are quite welcome good sir! Looks like they used the back two holes on the inside of the skate. Rest are new. None of them "bleed" into the other holes. Try on the 50's before you buy the 40's, was going to buy 40's until i slipped on the 50's. Lol, I also joined because of the EQ50. The price for the quality is just disgusting. Spent about $325 on the boot,frame, and mount. I thought about self mounting but the guy who did mine is a friend of a friend so I knew the quality would be good.

    Here is the pictures of the EQ50's I said I would post. Loving them so far, took a game to get used to the 80/76 setup. Got a great deal to have the local pro shop put em on for me ($20).

    Just got my Aluminum Vanguard chassis, the Inhaler officially weighs 170 grams (used a scientific scale that was professionally calibrated 2 months ago)

    Appreciate all the feedback and the debate. I decided to just order a pair of the new aluminum Hi-Lo frames from inlinewarehouse.com, got em for 62.59 with free shipping using the 15% off code. If I can make a pair of 1999 Wicked Lights last 13 years with the original Carbon Fiber chassis still intact, I can make aluminum work. If I get blown away with an offer in the next few days I can always return them.

    Think I am going to go that way. Thanks for the advice, will post pic when I have them finished.

    Just bought a pair of Easton EQ50. IMO very similar fit to a Bauer Supreme(I have 175's). Going to throw on either a Vanguard Magnesium or Aluminum, can not decide if I want to invest the extra money.
