Big thanks from the whole team for this review Richard !🔥🤙
You are very welcome! 😁
Congratulations to you & your team on producing a very capable, enjoyable & affordable skate-which I personally feel is key in making inline skating accessible to all. 👏
Rolling & reviewing these MF900s has been an absolute pleasure, thank you! 🙏
Oxelo’s ethos resonantes with me, and I’m excited about future Oxelo products. 👏
Any word on bringing these to the USA? Decathlon had a small run of mf500 like 2 years ago, and never restocked
I’m not sure, maybe DM them on IG?
Tried the MF900 briefly at the end of a MF500 session. Both sets are bullet proof and a great intro into inline skating. Definitely recommended and great videos to introduce them Rich 👍
Thank you! Yes, my first set of MF500s are still rolling! Robust indeed! 😁
Great review Rich 👍
I am about to order these now 🤩
Awesome skills too 👏
👌Enjoy!
Thanks!
Great review. Fully agree. Enjoying my MF900 a lot. I do use a simple insole which makes is immensely comfortable to use for longer periods
Thanks, yeah that’s a good idea. 👍
Nice. It's been a good few years but x3s might be fun for my big come back! Appreciate the in-depth review.
I think they’d be ideal for a comeback to skating! 👌
Just watched your reviews of these skates and honestly watching you blast around on the roads in Scotland is pretty inspiring. I'm in Manchester myself and just didn't think skates would handle our crappy roads but your are convincing me otherwise. Probably going to pick up some MF500's :)
Hey thanks! It’s what this channel is about! 🙏😁
Go for it! You won’t regret it! It’ll be tough at first, but if you stick with it, it’ll be one of the best decisions you ever make! 👍
A great New Year’s Resolution! 😁
Nice one! Oh quick query on these I guess. I have stupidly narrow feet. Still think these would be alright?
Yeah, I don’t imagine this will be an issue.
Im an experienced skater and I really enjoyed your review! I've owned some 3x110 FR3s that I dont really like too much. After seeing your flow on these I'm more motivated to give them a try again. It really seems like you're getting a lot from the edges on the bigger wheels. Your flow is incredible, very similar to Bill Stoppard but faster and more nimble. Super cool to watch you skate all over these rough surfaces. The bigger wheels really suit your style. Amazing to watch.
Hey, thank you for your comment!
As I mentioned in the review, I was never that interested in 3x110, but these skates genuinely surprised me.
When I received them, I made a commitment to use them exclusively for several months, to give myself a chance to really get to know them. As it turned out, they ended up becoming one of my favourite skates!
You should defo give them another go. If I recall, the FR 310s use a shorter frame, which I personally think would make them quick and nimble. I’d like to try that frame!
Good luck! Let me know how you get on. 👍
Nice one Rich! 👍
great review
Thanks!
Thanks for the review!!!! I'm going to subscribe :)
👍😁
Hello! I have been using the mf 900 for 15 months (I prefer them to my other powerslide next 4x80 skates) because they are stable, quite agile (no 40 with frame 247), relatively fast once they take off during the start. I ride 4 days a week for about 15 kilometers. Because I go down with T brake on big downhills, they rubbed.I turned the wheels inside out and crossed .
I'm thinking of putting 88a hardness spinner wheels and abec 9 bearings. What do you know? I watch your videos, I enjoy them.
Thank you, Asterios , Thessaloniki, Greece
Thanks for watching. The 88a and new bearings might give you a bit of extra speed. You should maybe try to carve downhill to avoid using the T stop so much, this might give you some extra wheel life; I made a video about speed control on hills. 👍
Hey man great review on these! Also I love your flow you just make it look effortless. I’m considering buying these skates and I’m split between the 4x80 setup or the 3x110. I’m a total beginner, only ever skated on skateboard before, so the sensible thing would be to start on smaller wheels… but the thing is here in my town roads are very rough and often made of cobbles. I own an e-board with 96mm wheels and it can often get uncomfortable due to the rough surfaces, so I’m not really sure how the 80mm setup would handle. I would mainly use this skate for cruising, some commuting and exploring, so I really wouldn’t want something that limits me. Another question I have is about sizing. Decathlon only has these available online so I can’t really try them on. Would you say that the boot size matches the one of normal shoes? Thank you
I love your reviews of both the MF500 and MF900. I'm a total newbie, so ended up buying the 500s. Two question though: 1) are the bigger wheels on the 900 more capable on rougher surfaces? 2) could you put the longer frames and bigger wheels on the MF500 boots in the future?
Kinda, and Yes.
The larger wheels will roll quicker and will be less affected by pumps and small stones, but I don’t feel they are as good to learn on as the smaller 4x80 setup. In the future, you can mount the larger 3x110 frame in the MF500 boot. 👍
Hey Rich, I´ve just finished watching your reviews for both MF500 and MF900.. I just got a pair of the MF500 but I just realised that de 900 are on sale in my city so I'm considering making the change. I'm not very experienced with inline skating, I used to skate in my teenage years but nothing extreme, and now I'm planning on getting back to it so I would like to kindly ask for your opinion on what skates to use, should I stick to the MF500 I already have (haven't used them yet) or would you advise me to not miss the offer and go for the 900?
It’s entirely up to you, but, as I mention in the review, if you’re just getting back into I’d personally recommend that you stick with the MF500. I feel it’s the better choice to begin with.
@@RichHayterSkater thank you so much!
You are welcome! Enjoy your new skates! 👍😁
Dang, you should team up with Oxelo! Great skills too, loved the video :) only thing that holds me back it's the ankle pain people get with these.
Thanks, I appreciate your comment!
I didn’t feel the ankle pain as much with the MF900, I’d recommend replacing the liner eventually to something a bit more supportive.
@@RichHayterSkater got the Rollerblade twister 110 two days ago :)
Hey Rich. Contemplating a purchase, but I'm split between The Oxelo MF500 and The Seba E3 80. I know the Oxelo's are good because I'm currently rolling MF500's so I'm contemplating selling them and buying another pair, but I don't know if I should buy the Seba E3 80's instead. They're similarly priced, but I can't find any reviews on them. Your opinions?
I can’t comment on the E3 as I’ve never used them. They do seem like a decent spec for the price, and they come with rockerable frame, which is a nice touch. You’re paying a bit extra for them, but I’d say if you’re happy them, just go for it. That said, you probably won’t notice much difference between them and the MF500, so it might be worth going for the MF900 since it’s 3x110.
I do enjoy the MF900 a lot. Are there any 110 mm wheels you would recomend as mine are quite runned down now?
I personally rate the original Oxelo 86a wheels that came with the skates, but I’ve recently used Iqon Eqo 88a wheels, which are excellent! 👌
Hi, i watched your reviews and im not sure whether i should go for MF500 or MF900, so i have two questions. 1. Which pair gives you more stability? 900s make you taller, which decreases stability, but does the longer frame compensate for that? 2. How about speed? It makes sense that it is easier to gain speed on 3x110mm wheels than 4x80mm, but is the maximum speed for both pairs the same? Do you notice significant differences between avg. speed during session on these two skates?
Hey! I’ll answer your questions then give you my opinion.
1. Regardless of frame length, I’d say the MF500 gives you a tad more stability for general skating, and definitely so for tricks, stairs, jumps, etc, due to their height.
In terms of speed, you’ll accelerate quicker off the mark with the MF500 before the MF900 catches up, but it will probably reach a slightly lower top speed than the MF900, and it will take more effort to maintain that speed. The MF900 excels at cruising at speed and, once you get used to them, your foot speed and acceleration will catch up quick! Jumps, slides, transitions are all fine once you get used got the extra height, but I still find stairs to be a wee bit sketchy, mainly due to the fewer points of contact with the ground, and the larger gaps between the wheels.
I rate both skates but would say, if you’re a beginner or want them mainly for bombing around, jumping, doing some tricks or even some wizard skating, choose the MF500, and if you’re competent and are keen for something a bit quicker, you might opt for the MF900.
I hope this helps! Happy rolling!👍
Привет, спасибо за отзыв. Катаюсь на mf900, интересно узнать, с какой средней скоростью получается двигаться на длинные расстояния (10-15 км) при высокой активности движения?
На стадионе при активности чуть выше средней не получается преодолеть среднюю скорость 20км\ч на расстояниях более 15км. Хочется с кем-то сравниться и понять есть тут ограничения роликов ...
Трудно угадать, это будет зависеть от дорожного покрытия и трафика. моя цель-наслаждаться поездкой! 😁
Я лично катаюсь в среднем со скоростью около 20 км/ч, а когда отталкиваюсь от промежуточного асфальта, скорость достигает 25 км/ч. На действительно гладком покрытии я могу кататься со скоростью 30 км/ч некоторое время. Я катаюсь на роликовых коньках Powerslide Kaze 3x110 мм, и мой первый марафон в Берлине на роликах был примерно на скорости 24 км/ч. Точное время составило 1:41:37 для преодоления марафона.
I translated this with chat gpt I have no idea how well it went.
@@blackyraypatrick9041 спасибо за детальный ответ. Был опыт преодоления только половинки за час с небольшим, поэтому марафон за такое время это очень хорошо по моим меркам. Точно понял с момента написания поста, что влияет качество асфальта, у меня на стадионе оно было ниже среднего (да и тот закрыли на реконструкцию). Также почуствовал, что ощутимо влияют на накат подшипники, в моем экземпляре это направление для улучшения. Интересно было бы понаблюдать и посравнивать результаты с кем либо, имеется ли у вас strava ?
I'm going to buy those in 2 days :)
Thanks Decathlon XD
Awesome! 👌
Im just getting in the skating as an adult ive not skated but as a child i remember being shit hot as i have great balance, your review as pretty much sold me these skates, if i was spending abit more say £200 is there anything better than these or would you say save my money an get these?
Many thanks Louis
I recommend these as an inexpensive way to get into skating, but if you’re happy spending more then something from Rollerblade, FR, Seba, or Flying Eagle would provide you with a better liner and bearings.
I’d also consider getting back into skating using a 4x80 setup rather than a 3x110? But I’d you’ve skated before then perhaps it will not be an issue.
Good luck! Enjoy! 😁👍
Nice 👍
I've been skating for 3 months with Oxelo fit100 and i decided to buy new skates. They are Mf500 or Mf900. Do you think i may be capable for using 3x110 skates? And could i do some backwards and some cool stuff (not tough one's) with Mf900's?
Yes, absolutely! These are awesome skates! And so are the MF500.
@@RichHayterSkater thanks for the reply. I think i'll buy MF500 for now and maybe after a year i'll buy MF900
hello fm500 vs fm900 which one is better for you? and how to know what size skate to use
If I could choose only one….? Probably the MF500, because I like 4x80 just a little more than 3x110. But these are both great skates. 👍
greetings from Greece !oxello 110 or tempish viber 110? what did y suggest? thanks..
Never tried the Tempish so I can’t comment too much. They look like a Rolllerblade boot, but I read a few comments talking about flex in the plastic. They are also considerably more expensive than the Oxelo.
@@RichHayterSkater the price its almost the same for Greece 120 eurw for oxelo and 130 for tempish
The Tempish do look pretty good. I am sure you would get good use out of either skate.
Do not procrastinate, the product is but a minor detail. When you are out on your wheels, feeling the flow, the brand will not matter. 👍😁
@@RichHayterSkater nice attitude :-) thanks for yr time !!
I see that Decathlon have these back in stock again, after a lapse of several months
I have the MF 500, which are fantastic value.
Couldn’t agree more! 👍
I am gonna buy tomorrow exactly like yours the one u explained in this video. But i am confuse kinda making me stress and confuse when im looking at reviews some people are saying it break fast after a week and all. i hope nothing like that happens
I have never had any problems with these skates. Mine are still solid, nothing has broken.👌
edit: - after a few uses the mf900s broke, so am returning, will prob get a different brand, not sure yet
====
Still liking the ennui footies? you tried any other ones for comparison?
got some mf900 and am really liking them so far
I haven’t used the footies for a while, have been using an older Seba liner in my current setup, which is a much more comfortable and supportive liner.
Glad you like the MF900s, I’m still using them too!
I had a pair coming today however I didn't realise until delivery that I had entered a mixture of my address and my mother's I was devastated they're coming tomorrow now
Enjoy! 👍
new version of this skates dropped, I wonder what are the differences
Really? Can't find it at decathlon?
@@Gotnatt yes, same name but the three wheels are white and the boot is a different colour. Dont know if there are further differences
@@JTTigas will try the twister 110 in my local skateshop tomorrow
Thanks for the review, exactly what I was looking for ! I have pretty wide feet, and have just bought a pair of these, do you think they’ll be ok with wide feet ?
I couldn’t say for certain, as I’ve never measured my foot width, but I am inclined to say these would be fine.
The liner isn’t the thickest, so that should help, too.
@@RichHayterSkater thanks Rich, appreciate you answering so quickly. I literally strapped back in yesterday for the first time in about 9 years, and Im hoping these’ll inspire me to get going again 😊👍🏻
@TrailMonki Go for it! Just accept the learning curve, and try not to be dissuaded when you hit those stumbling blocks. If you stick with it, I can promise you will not regret it!
Enjoy the journey! 👍😁
@@RichHayterSkater thanks Rich. Those skates fit perfectly 👌🏻 Im going to get out on them at the weekend as long is its not icy 🥶 appreciate the help and the comments, all the best, James
Awesome! Enjoy mi Amigo! 🙌
I tried to order. It says they are discontinued.
I see that they are back on the Decathlon Online site again.
Also where about in Scotland is that lovely accent from?!
Ha! Thank you! 🙏 It’s from the west coast! 🏴
Im so hot with roller that I will try to succeed with my a 2nd hand 15€ rollerblade, looks 99,9% new. 😮. The price of 2nd hand is so low in France. Thank you internet 😅
🙌
The 2 piece axles are a bummer for sure.. It's annoying carrying 2 skate tools and trying to thread axles. One piece axles can't possibly cost much more to produce considering all the other good components they use such as a tapped aluminum mount
The liner seems to have a neoprene toe which is nice.
I agree the straps look very thin and flimsy even though the rachet looks higher quality than the mf500.
For $100 bucks that's insane and makes anyone question paying double or triple for 3wd skates from rollerblade or fr skates
I didn’t like them either at first, but I’m used to them now; you don’t really need to use both tools, you can manage with one most of the time.
I think most of the cost would be associated with threading the frames, but I could be wrong.
You’re right, for the price, it’s a well-spec’d skate, and I have found myself questioning whether I’d ever need another 3x110mm, when the MF900 is so solid.
@@RichHayterSkater skill is more important than skates. I have twister edges and still skate like a 5 year old. Pushing 40 and lazy my whole life.. Lots of back and nerve problems... Use it or lose it. Learn that the hard way...
The only thing I can see being a downfall is the shell has a lot of cut outs, this usually leads to cracked shells where something like a twister is a one piece with very few areas for ventilation, but we are talking about dry rotted plastic issues that should still last 5+ years minimum.
Yes, defo need to stay active, the more you do the more you’ll be able to do, and for longer. Need to respect your body, but you defo need to use it.
Twister look quite distinctive.
I don’t think I’ll break my boots with the amount of skating I’m doing at the moment!
on sale now £69.99
A great price for these skates! 👍
These are like 130€ now ayooo
Still a quality skate imho!
