itis121 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Im trying to do a refurb on a SK600 and SK2000 and curious of the cage options. I'm located in Canada and found this option for field hockey. I'm curious if its bonafide to use. https://www.hockeypoint.nl/en/bauer-hm30-cateye-cage-pro-bauer.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichMan Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Looks just like the original. Rey also produces one. Maybe OTNY can make one as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dualshowman Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 The 5mm round bar they're using with this version is noticeably thicker than the original. I still have one left from 20 years ago, and the round bar is puny compared to more recent cages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman666 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Warwick also has them, but they are EXPENSIVE from Warwick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 For 55 Euro - I'd give one a spin. They look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I abandoned using real HM30s at the end of their run anyway. Bauer HM30s were pretty weak by then. Although they were about $35 new still at most shops, so I'd replace them all the time. I switched to a Sportmask SM-90 and never had to replace it. But if you're going for the real HM30 cage, that one looks legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed them with no reply.I asked the guys are the skate shop a few months ago to see if they can get some from them. I'll ask if they got a reply back.

Got a SM-90 with a sk2000 I'll be using for parts. I'm happy with the purchase! Tho I'll be using this once for low level shinny, then on display.

MTH Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I like. Looks like new foam in the 600? I loved wearing the SK 600. Wore it forever for deck hockey and roller hockey. I had the original Styrofoam looking padding still in it with the sweat band. My grandmom bought me that helmet for around $35 when new with a VL 50 cage from Herman's Sporting Goods in the day. I also worked there in college. Cool company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
