Siponarius 16 Report post Posted July 1, 2018 Are Bauers with Speedblades unheard of? The reason why I ask is I'm going to FINALLY be getting a new pair of Nexus when they release. Even though I've been skating on Ribcor 68ks for the last 2 years, and they are great, they still have an odd fit. I've skated with Edge holder before, and I absolutely hated them. But these SB 4s, I definitely do like. Has anyone ever seen Bauers out in the wild with SBs on them? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CigarScott 132 Report post Posted July 1, 2018 I haven't as it's usually the other way around. It's not uncommon to see CCM skates with LS Edge holders on them, particularly in the NHL. I would be curious how they would fit on Bauer skates with how the rivet holes line up and if you need to put a shim in between them due to how high of an arch the Nexus skates have.

The rivet holes line up, but the size labels are slightly different. My Tuuks are 296, but the SB4.0s are stamped as 295. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
