Frames and wheels are crucial components of inline skates, contributing to their performance, stability, and maneuverability. Here are some common types of frames and wheels used in inline skating:

Frames:

  1. Aluminum Frames:
    • Aluminum frames are lightweight, durable, and often found in high-performance skates. They provide good power transfer and are suitable for speed skating.
  2. Plastic Frames:
    • Plastic frames are more affordable and suitable for recreational and beginner skates. While not as rigid as aluminum, they offer flexibility and comfort.
  3. Carbon Fiber Frames:
    • Carbon fiber frames are lightweight and provide excellent rigidity. They are commonly used in high-end performance skates for speed skating or aggressive inline skating.
  4. Composite Frames:
    • Composite frames use a mix of materials, often combining plastic and other materials for a balance of strength, weight, and cost. They are versatile and found in various types of skates.
  5. Rockerable Frames:
    • Rockerable frames allow skaters to adjust the wheel configuration for more maneuverability. The ability to rock the frame makes turning and carving easier.
  6. UFS (Universal Frame System):
    • UFS is a standardized mounting system for aggressive inline skates, allowing skaters to interchange frames easily. It is common in aggressive and urban skates.
