Adult Freeride Hardboot Inline Skates MF500 - White/Red

Im a seasoned inline skater , stopped skating for more than 20 years . I used to have more expensive and branded skates. Decided to skate again and i bought MF500 . This skate is on par with other brands that are 3-4 times more expensive . Its comfortable , the bearings are awesome and glides smoothly, material is tough and well maden . Wish it could be a bit lighter .

When it comes to the price for what you buy, Decathlon takes the prize for this one. Although, they slightly raised the price, I still went with the MF500's.
After some research, I found that this model is directly comparable to models that cost double, if not even triple, the money with other brands.
One drawback for me was the insole which is pretty basic and replaced it with an aftermarket gel sports insole (about £8-£10) and later replaced the bearings as well, but this is what makes them great: you begin with a great "base" skate, see if inline skating is for you and upgrade it as you go to fit your needs. They feel a little heavy at the start but my feet got used to the weight.
Overall, this is a great first skate and would recommend everyone to start with this if they are unsure if they want to start skating as they get some good quality that will have a positive feedback on their decision whether to take up the sport or not.

As a skater with several sets of branded skates already, I wanted to see what a £70 set of skates were like. Skates can be expensive and this can put people off from the start, I wanted to see if there was a quality skate that could give that amazing skating feeling at a price that wasn't going to break the bank; this is what Oxelo have done with the MF500. The skate feels solid and stable, the liner is comfortable, the cuff provides adequate support and, with two buckles and laces, my foot feels firmly planted in the boot. I did feel some pressure points on the inside of both ankles after the first few sessions, but these subsided quickly with continued use. Though not heavy, these do feel marginally heavier than my other skates, but this is not something a new skater would be aware of. The 86a wheels roll very well, allowing for speed, traction, and stopping power. There is a brake in the box but this is not something I use. The Abec 7 bearings are fine; they roll smoothly enough and can be changed when needed. The frames can be adjusted both front/back and laterally to suit a variety of skating styles. The only major issue I have with these is the two-piece wheels axle bolts. Sadly, the frames are not threaded, meaning the wheel axles come in two parts and require two hex keys for removal. These are provided but this makes wheel rotation a real chore. These hex keys are also used to adjust the frames; however, the keys provided are very short and it would be much easier to use a longer key. The only other issue I've encountered is a rubbing at the base of my left calf; though it's worth noting that I've only been using these for a month and this is something that's likely to subside once they bed in more. Who are these skates for? Personally, I'd say beginners, or intermediates on a budget. It's important to provide beginners with the best skating experience in order that they continue to enjoy the unique feel that skating can provide; these skates definitely do that. For the intermediate skater on a budget looking to push their skills and don a set of quality skates, I'd say: add these to the shortlist. I've had immense fun bombing around on these, and they've given skates three times the price a good run for their money. It may not be published here, but videos tell a story better than words on a page. For anyone interested in seeing these great skates in action you can check out Rich Hayter Skater on YT. To Oxelo, I would say: please change the two-piece wheel axle bolts. Enjoy!

I got them recently for my 15th birthday ! These roller blades are amazing as they give a really smooth ride on any surface including concrete! They go to a great speed whilst maintaining control! The wheels are amazing bcs they are made of the best material that roller blades can have , they are also really big and wide which aids a comfortable ride and makes u feel like ur flying! I'd recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a good pair of roller blades. they are amazing value for money and I enjoy them so so much !

They are absolutely gorgeous. Great for beginners, rolling very smoothly and comfortable overall.

Excellent skates. A little more then we have paid from other stores but they were not as specialised as this company. They are great quality and sturdy. Had a slight issue but was sorted out promptly by the fabulous customer service team. Delivery was quick. I am very happy with my purchase and will use Decathlon again as well as recomending them to others.
