Tyler Roy 86 Report post Posted August 20, 2013 These will retail for $899.99. The first APXr skate was $849.99. Unless your local store is going to break MAP pricing they will cost the $899.99.Yea, my LHS said $850 retail. That's no fun :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissionBauerTom 5 Report post Posted September 11, 2013 Going all 80 MM -- interesting. I wonder if Mission will be doing the same.Hey Guys,The new chassis on the APX2R skate is NOT an all 80MM chassis. It is a HI-LO chassis with an 80/76mm set up. This new HI-LO Kryptonium chassis is made of a new high grade material allowing us to bring you the most aggressive look and shaped chassis in the game.Hope you guys enjoy...let me know if you have any more questions on the Bauer and or Mission roller line-up.- Mission/Bauer Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But does it perform? No offense but right there I feel like you're encouraging the roller hockey stereotype that were all after flashy equipment. I'm hoping the new chassis will save extra weight but still be strong. It's very similar to what's on my ac2 skate except it's cutouts are bigger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's very similar to what's on my ac2 skate except it's cutouts are bigger.Hey Souldriver,Thanks for the comment on the look and shape of our new chassis, we feel it looks great as well. The Kryptonium chassis, offered on the Bauer APX2R, features a higher grade aluminum than our current HI-LO Aluminum chassis (featured on AC2/AC3/X90R). This higher grade aluminum chassis is now comparable to the HI-LO MAGNESIUM chassis in weight making the HI-LO KRYPTONIUM the lightest weight aluminum chassis to date. This product maintains the aggressive and performance based quality structure that belongs under the APX2R boot.If anyone does happen to go out and get a pair of APX2R skates, I would love to hear some feedback.-Mission/Bauer Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyler Roy 86 Report post Posted September 13, 2013 I have been counting down the days until they are set to ship. Decided to go with the Bauer this season rather than the Alkali, worn Alkali for the past 2 seasons.If anyone does happen to go out and get a pair of APX2R skates, I would love to hear some feedback.-Mission/Bauer Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sivly093 1 Report post Posted September 19, 2013 Just got the APXR2's and I can't say enough good things!! Lightest and nicest skates I've ever played one. Love the weight, the stiffness, the tongue, the wheels, everything. Played on them the other day and can't wait to skate in them again.Quick question though, when is the rest of the new Bauer stuff, esp the pants, supposed to be released?
