FR FR3 80 - Blue Inline Skates

FR FR3 80 - Blue freeride inline skates

FR Skates focuses on solid freeride skates and high-end models for freestyle slalom. The FR series models have set technological standards for urban skating for over a decade and even today surpass most of the competition's models.

The FR3 80 is still based on the tried and tested FR1 boot, but with a full plastic buckle on the cuff and an older type 45-degree angle buckle. A great choice to start your inline skate adventure and for light freeskating!

Features of the FR FR3 80 - Blue freeskate inline skates 

• Rigid shell — made of durable material, with a range of conveniences that every user will appreciate. The shell itself is cut a bit more than usual for skates of this class, which increases comfort, especially for people with high arches.
• Cuff  – The screw-fastening of the cuff allows it to be easily removed and replaced with a different colour, or the cuff with additional height adjustment.
• Replaceable slider — or side protection of the shoe designed to minimize damage while sliding on wheels.
• FR Liner — a comfortable, anatomically shaped liner with the option of lacing at the top, which allows for better foot retention. Under the liner, there is a shock absorber that increases riding comfort and jump landings.
• Boot tightening —  composed of laces, plastic buckle on cuff and 45 degree ratchet buckle on shell.

Universal frame mounting system

Metal blocks embedded in the bottom of the boot at the frame mounting points. Above all, they allow for the adjustment of the frame position - each plate has 7 threaded holes for a screw. Furthermore, they stiffen the connection between the frame and the shoe, significantly contributing to the improvement of energy transfer to the wheels.

The spacing of the mounting points is 165 mm, and the shoes are compatible with most frame models in this standard - including three-wheel ones, which are easier to mount due to a special recess at the front plate, preventing the first wheel from rubbing against the shell.

XR2 frames of 243 mm length

XR2 frames, 243 mm in length, equipped with four Street Kings 80 mm wheels with Twincam MW7 Freeride bearings. This makes FR3 a universal, reliable and agile setup which feels right at home in urban environment.  

XR2 frame comes with a rockering system – you can tilt outer axles upwards, creating full rocker (“banana”) which is a standard setup for freestyle slalom. 4x80mm setup is a classic among freeskates and is perfect for jumps and slides.

FR FR3 80 Blue inline skates - Worth knowing!

Thanks to the fact that the 7 holes on each plate for mounting the frame give us more possibilities of spacing than 165 mm, the Endless brand has created a special, low-profile version of the Endless 110 frame dedicated to FR1/2/3 skates, using a 180 mm spacing! There is also absolutely no problem in fitting frames from other manufacturers to the boot.

FR3 80 are great mixture of versatility, proven design, quality and low price, making them ideal choice for everyone taking first steps in freestyle and urban skating. There is no denying that some corners were cut to hit lower price point, however, it was done in a smart way, without compromising the skate usefulness.
