Eh, I'm over the RBK roller gear this year. It just is not up to par with Mission or even Bauer.

I agree, RBK will never be up on par with mission or any of the others.

RBK are in it for the money where mission are in it to help the sport progress

Iv got samples of RBK pants & there just an update on the old koho's that no one ever bought !

I wish Syven would come back,for my money they were the best.that also includes his ( tod trickle) Nexed brand & again his original Gear pants, not those thin copys Giant were selling.

Had a sample in from China of " new made " Biltrite works type pants ...... looks like the old classic design but with out any Logo's or brands on.!

Theres two diffferent types of buyers when it comes to inline pants.

One is the average joe who plays house or beerleauge and wants pants for durability.

Two is the travel organizations who buy pants just for looks to match a jersey.

Ill bet that those pants are very popular for travel organizations because RBK is the hottest company and most organizations want the best stuff to show they are high class.

I haven't gotten my hands on these yet but usually you can tell how a pant is going to perform just by getting a feel for the weight and materials. CCM's last line of pants was a minor improvement (PF series) but still far away from anything made by Mission or Hyper.

Not to hijack the thread but do the Tour Code 1's have that top tier feel or are they flimsy garbage like other Tour pants?

They feel solid, nothing overly special but solid never-the-less

RBK is not hot at all, it's just new. Why are people so enamored over this brand?

I talked to my rep today about these pants. They are not available until next year. They were put in the catalog, but they will not be made this year.

new=hot for some. RBK is essentially CCM, so for the CCM faithful it provides more options. For Jofa lovers too. It looks like their products are solid if not boring, going the opposite way of Nike when they first hit the market. I'd rather spend money on a solid product than all flash and little substance. RBK is boring and nothing particularly noteworthy, but they will gain a following and grow.
