Flyke frames have now arrived!
Flyke Racing makes premium inline racing frames including the shortest 4x110mm frame in the market which comes in at 13.1". They also make unique configurations like 2x110, 2x105. Plus, they are the only company to make a 3x110,1x100 and 4x105 configuration in a 165/195mm switchmount. These are two of the most exciting new products for elite short-track skaters who inline in their short track boots.
After years of trying to get lower, Flyke has determined that a higher deck height gives elite-level sprinters an advantage in developing initial velocity. Please note that due to the high deck height on the switchmount frame they are not suitable for youngsters or beginners.

New 110mm Il Peloton Bearing Puller
We've developed a new 110mm bearing puller, just in time for the holidays. A great product for ensuring that bearings are properly seated in the wheel hubs so that the wheels spin freely, and for safely removing bearings without damaging the o-rings. A must-have item for families and for skaters with ceramic bearings.

Move over Maple! The new Zero and Cado Motus ST blades are in stock. They are innovative and beautiful to skate on and offer significant technological advances.
The Cado Motus has a HSS 63/64HRC runner with built-in deformation control. Bending the blade is made easier, the bend is retained better by the runner, and the HSS hardness offers higher reliability than the hard-but-fragile PM steel.
The Zero is an elite ST blade for premium racers with an oversized tube and superior cup technology. Don`t take our word for it, click here for a video explaining some of the new features of the Zero.

Roller Montreal Marathon swarmed by an Il Peloton Skeletons army!
Olivier Jean breezes across the finishline
Deathly cold weather at last week's Roller Montreal Marathon last weekend did not chill the bones of those racers lucky enough to be wearing an Il Peloton reloaded skinsuit. The finish was awash in a sea of green, with 4 of the top 5 finishers crossing the finishline in the Il Peloton signature black and green suit.
Olympic gold medallist Olivier Jean took control of the race early on and crossed the finishline alone. Sergio Almeralla left the pack late to catch Steve Robillard and chase down a gutsy break made by Speedskateworld's Peter Doucet. Steve clawed himself a second-place finish just short of the line while Sergio Almeralla settled for 4th. Benoit Letourneau had a very impressive 5th place finish. Congratulations to all the brave souls who skated strong and hard in the cold, sleet and wind.
