Westside 232 Report post Posted January 8 7 years later and could there finally be light at the end of the tunnel!!?! https://www.facebook.com/100064129385552/posts/758794172934889/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_game 452 Report post Posted January 8 Wait shouldn’t this be in the ‘Sprung’ thread? Or are they keeping the ‘fizix’ name? For marketing purposes I think the name sprung works better but that’s just me. I guess the next question is what the cost will be and if they’ll be in the $400’ish range that Labeda recently created for aftermarket inline chassis/frames.

Westside 232 Report post Posted January 8 Couldn’t find the Sprung thread and figured the chassis was mentioned in this one so it seemed appropriate. Agreed about potential pricing although at least Sprung chassis have an actual benefit unlike what Labeda is trying to do. Components look minimal and I thought I recalled magnesium being discussed after aluminum for the material so it’ll be interesting to see what they go with and how how much it weighs 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sprung was purchased by Valhalla Sport, last I spoke to Thom when I purchased parts. Fizix is more or less a "different" product from Keith. Keith is a cool dude. Wish him the best and will probably purchase these when they release. I remember way back when he did the actual skate conversion and I picked up my Sprung conversions at his house. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gsr027 1 Report post Posted January 11 Maybe if the fizix version comes out the prices on the sprung chassis and parts will go back down to where they were before. I get it, all the stock was bought and the buyer needed to set a price to be worthwhile, but might help folks renew/replace their aging sprungs/parts vs jumping to the new option Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Westside 232 Report post Posted January 11 Are there any new Sprung components being made? I thought Thom simply bought up all the supply and that was it. Didn't realize he was still producing components Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know at least one other is John Noris. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miller55 333 Report post Posted January 23 Thom bought up the remaining stock, as well as the rights to production of the Sprung frame. I have reached out to some folks to see if I could get a sample to try, would love to mount these and test em out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if they both sold to Thom or Joe stayed on our what his involvement is currently Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markk1 1 Report post Posted March 7 Look what I spotted at State Wars (Winter Wars West) end of Feb, 2024. It appears that there is a new chassis in the works. As a long time Sprung user I am super excited! https://imgur.com/a/Ymndkaq 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Westside 232 Report post Posted March 7 Looks to be the same as what was posted 2 months ago just silver instead of black. Really hoping these come to market soon. Holding off on new skates and would love to mount these to whatever I pick up 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe if there titanium I couldn't see other metal or alloy that thin in the arms handle hockey abuse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
