We bought some roller skates https://www.amazon.co.uk/MTS-Childrens-Adults-Adjustable-Roller/dp/B01M74JVE5/ref=mp_s_a_1_25?dchild=1&keywords=kids+roller+skates&qid=1579901677&sprefix=kids+roller&sr=8-25(no doubt RSSO for those in the scene) for child 3 for his birthday, he’s very happy with them, but the wheels have begun to brake up after 2 weeks, no problem a quick email to amazon and we have been given a full refund, however they said dispose of them yourself. Being a frugal sort I figured I could just buy some wheels and all would be well.

Trouble is I can’t find 54mm wheels for sale , is this some roller skate marketing trick? 😂

Does anyone know if spare wheels are sold for kids skates?

Cheers

Google says you can get 58mm wheels... Do you reckon you have 2mm clearance?

That'll teach you for being a cheapskate! 😂

Just be aware that the width of the cores might be wider on the new wheels. Axles on kids skates tend to be shorter so you might struggle to get the bolts on if they are standard width.

I've been to the roller disco in Glasgow a few times, convinced I'd hate it, it's bloody brilliant! 😂
