can the toe stop be changed? My local rink does not allow black toe stops.

yes it can, you just have to use a wrench to unscrew it! Also learning without the stopper is a good thing; just in case you learn to crossover your feet

I wouldn't buy these, the bearings were shot when ours arrived. The skates are very shaky to ride on. It costs more to fix replace the bearings than the skates are probably worth. It pays to buy local, directly from a rink.

I haven't tried to find alternate pucks but if you have a chop shop you could buy a short piece of a certain diameter dowel rod and cut a chunk off and paint it black. It would still obviously roll when it's on edge but you could buy maybe 1 inch diameter or 3/4 inch and don't sand the corners to be rounded. Just a thought.

That's really a hard question to answer because the toe clips aren't square, they're curved. On my hybrid bike, the toe clips are 3 1/2" from the center of the pedal to the end of the toe clip. The actual toe clip is about 2 1/2" long end-to-end. The height at the end of the toe clip is about 1", but it slopes upward to 2+" at the final top. I wear size 8 1/2 "trail runner" shoes with my bike (the bottom treads are worn somewhat smooth). The trail runners have pull/clamp type of lace, not a normal lace that you need to tie. That way there's nothing to get caught in the chain. However, one important thing is to use metal "cage-type" pedals, and not "composite-type" pedals. The composite pedals are thicker, and when you use the toe clip, it makes the top of the toe clip too thin for my shoes to fit into them. My hybrid has metal cage pedals and the clips work great - I even bought a new bike with metal pedals and moved the toe clips to the new bike. I also bought a mountain bike with composite pedals, and the toe clips are now too low for my shoes. And I'm too cheap to change the pedals. As long as you're pushing up, down, or forward, your foot is "glued" to the pedal. All you need to do is to pull backward and the shoe comes easily out of the toe clip. They're great!!

I looked all over amazon, the web, and all of the stores in my area and came up with nothing. My toe was broken and I needed something to keep my toe from bending so I used popsicle sticks and sports wrap. Wasn't very good. Good luck!

I am not sure if you could get them to stay on the way you need it to. I have fairly large toes and I broke my big toe. It just fit with the big toe and second toe in it. But they do have velcro to help adjust it to your feet. So it might be worth at least giving it a try.

tes... they come with a adapter that prevents the pedals from moving back and forth allowing you to use the toe brakes as a gas/brake pedals

There is a small button on both sides of the skate near the bottom of the foot between the front and back sets of wheels. Press them in at the same time and it will allow you to adjust the size of the foot.

K Davis is asking how to replace the Pilates toe bar with a squat PLATFORM instead. I too am looking for this answer as an option for those who want a full platform, not just a "bar"...Hope someone else knows since some of us need support for doing squats and THAT requires a solid PLATFORM, not some "TOE bar".. I am considering making a platform out of plywood with padding and simply placing it up against the useless Pilates toe bar?

At the bottom of the Amazon page where it says :"Product Description", there is a list of models that this item fits. Yours is not listed. However, if you can take off the entire foot you are using now leaving the straight black shank the foot attaches to, bare then you can probably attach it. Your call.

You may need to look into custom boots from a Skate company like Riedell. I don't know of any skates the are offered in sizes that wide out of the box. You might also want to look into getting a a pair of your own shoes made into skates, Skates.com offer this service.

Well... Studiohut (the seller) should probably know better than me, but mine definitely comes off. I just took it off to see. There's an adjustment knob on the bottom that screws into the cold shoe from the bottom via 1/4-20 thread. Maybe I'm not understanding what you mean, or perhaps it's been re-engineered since I bought mine.

No. The loop is too large to keep the toe spreader in place on a little toe.

I didn't try Correct Toes so I cannot compare. From my experience, These toe stretchers are flexible and "sticky" in a good way so they will not slip of your toes. The width of the stretchers is designed to vary according to the specific toe so it also help to support the big toe, yet not to go off the small one.

No, it uses velcro to hold the big toe in place. You can adjust the velcro to keep the big toe from bending more or less.

Yes, you can do your toes. I did mine and the polish has lasted for weeks. There's plenty of room for one foot (not enough room for two feet).
