You mean "wheels attached to skate" protectors?

If you go to Berlin, you should be able to find some at the fair. Otherwise I can try and find some webshops over here, let me know if needed.

Yes i did mean the ones to keep the rain off the wheels and keep your clothes clean when attached to the skates.

I'm unable to make berlin this year as I am doing A2A then instead so miss out on the expo  Sad

If you're feeling creative, and you're after something to put over the frame and wheels, I built some for myself using some cloth and cord. I even wrote it up 'cos I was feeling bored.

My set work really well and the cord act as a semi-useful carry strap too.

Kim is in Korea, and has kindly offered to get me and a few others a pair before he left.

These are the ones:

http://www.kangbookinline.com/src/products/products_detail.php?product_mst_id=0100_00013

They come in 4 * 100mm and 4 * 110mm, and will cost around £8.

Apologies for not posting about this sooner, but I wanted to check if he'd be ok to get some more, rather than just assume he would be.

If you're interested, let me know before the end of today and I will send him details along with mine.  He would have space for 5 more pairs - Selena, I will assume you want a pair (I just need confirmation and the size), so make that 4 pairs.

First come. first serve.

Would like a pair for 100mm, thx Ed.
Also send you a PM, in case you miss this.

I was selling them on behalf of Naomi. I think max was 4x80mm tho.

Sounds like you are sorted now but if you want me to ask if she has any left in the UK send me a PM or something.
