The wheel stick-out is backwards. Probably the 1/4" ("That's not necessary!") mentioned in the instructions. You should have less in front and more in back. You can't use the toes without levering yourself up into the air, and you are behind the rear suspension. While the mounting deal is still on, you can send them to me and I'll fix them for you. I have corrected many many many mounts during my learning curve. Most recently my own X30s which I mounted to far to the outside at first. It can be hard even with the directions if you don't have a frame set up with the front and rear wheels in it to double check everything. I've seen brand new major brand roller boots with no wheel in back and half a wheel in front, like you're supposed put a break on the back or something. It can all be fixed without hurting the boot bottoms or the frames. :) Do I have the same issue? I looked at the rear of the skate and there is no more room to have the chasis moved back any further. yea dude my frame is an A6 on 9D's and i dont think it could fit any better its the perfect size for my boots and i didnt move it 1/4 inch from center like it said in the instructions i eyed it to where it looked correct to me and i guess i was right. only complaint is the flex when crossing over or hard sharp turns the wheels rub the chassis and i've tried alot of wheels same results (i am 240 lbs though) but i love the way they feel like ice skates so i dont care. no other inline frame feels this good check out my mount i have equal wheel sticking out back and front and they feel perfect (with a 3/16 heel lift) http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss282/c...994/sprung3.jpg I see what you mean... but I've also noticed that in most pictures people have ample space between the sprungs and and the toe/heels of their skates. I feel like my A7's fit absolutely perfect on a size 8EE skate. You could position your wheels in such a way because you had room to move the chasis back or forward to get them to sit equal. I feel like I bought the wrong size chasis (even though Joe at Sprung said an A7 would fit fine).
