The product, in the report: three wheel skates
I got a pair of cardiff skates for Christmas. In the box were some discs that could be used to slow down the skates. I was hesitant to use them, because in order to do so you had to use an Allen wrench and remove the back wheels. But wanting to allow myself to get used to the skates I decided to put the discs on. I read and reread the instructions on how to assemble the discs. Once the discs are on, tension could be applied to the wheels by tightening the hex screw. I had fairly well put as much pressure as I could put on the disc, but made sure the wheel could still freely spin. I got up on my skates and went a short distances-maybe five yards at the most, and thought-I can do this! When all of a sudden I fell. I fell on my right hand and right knee. I was shocked I had taken this hard spill when a friend picked up the wheel and said it came off!. I emailed the company and they told me I was suppose to check the tightness of the wheels periodically. I mentioned I had only gone a few yards after I had checked the screws and wheel spin. I took another look at the screws (which are pretty short to begin with) and noticed some blue on the threads. I looked over their handout and there is a mention of using Lock Tight on the threads-this information should have been on the instructions for assembling the dics! But it wasn’t. I emailed the company again stating this, but they did not reply to me. My hand is feeling better, knee not so much. Waiting for the scab to heal and then heading to dr for some exrays.
