Converting CCM Vector Pros to inline

[Hede 2]

Hi guys

I am new to this great forum.

I have a pair of CCM PF8 inliners, they are a year old and the boot are totaly finished. Not the quality you would expect from CCM. :(

I can get a pair of CCM Vector Pros on sale and i was thinking of converting them in to inliners. I have a pair of Vector Pros that i use fore icehockey an its size 8D.I like to ues the chassis from the PF8´s, its like new but its a size 9. Will the chassis from the PF8´s fit a size 8 Vector Pro boot?

I hope you can help. Thanks.

they should fit no problem, but I'd recommend a better chassis for a better overall skate. I'm not sure what CCM did initially with the alum alloy on the PF series skates, but it can be bent from tightening your wheels a quarter turn too tight. Invest in a better frame and you will thank yourself for it.

Thanks. I will think about the frames but its not easy to get hold of new frames here.

If your buying the Vectors on sale from a onlinestore order the red star e-frames with them, góod solid hi-lo frame.

Otherwise snoop around an see if one of your teammates have a pair of old mission skates or something similar.

Or you could buy a chassis from one of the German onlinestores, e.g:

Thanks Patrick67. I´ve got the skate on sale fore only 67 euro ore $86 last weekend. I don´t know about the chassis. I been happy with the CCM PF8 chassis the last year. Its a lot better then my last alu ccm hi-lo frame. That got bent all the time but the PF8 chassis are still not bent.

Hede-since you play ice hockey and want a good inline skate,read the posts on the sprung frame.i play ice and inline and the sprung frame is a great frame for the ice guy playing inline.the posts from skaters on the sprung frames performance will give you an idea what to expect from this great design on the future of the inline skate.check it out write back some thoughts.

It sounds very cool to get the same feel as on ice. I think i could give it a go. I been reading all the post and it sounds good very good.

I just ordered a sprung frame. So i´ll see wenn i get it how good it is. Sprungster is on hes way to China so i think it will be a couple weeks before i get it. He will send it to Luxembourg fore me, to my sister so i dont have to pay the high danish import tax ;-). Thats service, thanks again Keith.
