Are these rollerblades good on sidewalks and roads?

Great on side walks, certain roads can be difficult but if the road is on the smoother side it ROCKS! Now I still rollerblade with these on the roads and in my area they are not that smooth but because I tend to rollerblade with a wide stride the side walks are not wide enough for me. So I do use these on the roads. At first my legs were extremely sore, but, got used to it. So I would say yes to both.

Yes if the road and sidewalk don't have any holes they are super smooth and fast.

I cannot attest to the durability of the tires on asphalt. My mom uses hers exclusively on concrete & tile. The wheels LOOK substantial. Sorry cannot be more helpful.

Yes I purchased 3 pair for myself, wife and daughter. Wheels have grooves to handle sidewalk. No issues so far

Sidewalks are good, rough surfaces not so much .. You have to focus on the path so you don't hit any rocks or crevices..

They will work great! I have owned them for a year now. Have used them in sand, snow, mud and everything in between. They are not the best tires for riding on pavement. I have a Rincon 680 and when mine wear down. I will buy these tires again.

Absolutely! At first they may seem very tight and restrictive as they are designed to protect your hand and wrist when you fall down on asphalt or cement which you do a lot of with street rollerskates but after a while they loosen up and your fingers can move very well but in the beginning they will be very tight.

It works well on sidewalks, a bit of rough going on grass or gravel. Turning radius not the best. Terrific in stores. Gives you freedom to go much farther than with either a walker or crutches.

The wheels are rubber tube. I would think they would be fine on hardwoods if they were clean. The wheels are big enough to handle a moderately rough terrain.

I don't know. The ones I bought were light duty meant for walking around parking lots and sidewalks in snowy weather. As I noted in my initial review, I prefer Kahtoola Microspikes for that purpose.

These are rink skates, not for outdoor. For outside skates you will need a harder compound of wheels and bearings specially made for outside skating.

They work well on smooth surfaces inside and outside on parking lots. The brake keeps them from rolling down inclines while you are loading and unloading them from your vehicle. I would not recommend them for sand, gravel or dirt.

I am very pleased with these wheels. Most strollers have plastic wheels, but these are hard rubber and work well on most terrains, although obviously better on pavement.

Both of my children have a pair of this brand of skates and neither one of them has ever taken them to the rink. They wear them inside the house sometimes but mostly outside on the sidewalks and street. Neighbor kids have worn them so they have gotten a lot of use for the past year! I imagine the wheels would be better if they were rink only but we didn't purchase them for that. We just wanted them to have a good skate and also had something to do OUTSIDE! :-)

Yes, absolutely, that's how my son and I used them. Of course you have to try to find relatively nice streets but that applies to any pair of skates I guess

They fit nicely on my fuji cross pro but I never take them off road. I wouldn't trust them. They seem fragile. I have beefier wheels for when I'm needing to go off-roading. I do use them for commuting. My route is not the smoothest ride... curbs, railroad tracks, etc and they've held up great for 2 years now. GL

I would say yes, and that is why I bought them. The smooth center makes for easy and quiet riding on smooth, hard surfaces. The knobs to the sides provide grip in loose surfaces. I use them mostly for gravel road riding, and like them a lot more than tires with knobs in the center.

Yes they can only be ridden on roads or bike paths, not sidewalks.The bike is nice, but beware that Customer Service sucks.
