Quadzilla32 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Forgive my ignorance but what the benefit of the TGN spec prolaces vs standard armor laces? Is it to just to have a little slack before you engage the bungee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also gives you the feel of the traditional skate but with the benefit of bungee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im looking to order some the websites give me an attachment style and when I pick TGC spec it drops the price by $25. That’s correct right? I don’t want to be missing pieces.

Snowman30 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Yeah your correct, selecting TGN spec lowers the price down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am waiting on items from the US to Cansda that are going on 5 weeks, when before Conrona 2 weeks or less and they would arrive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatCarGuy Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Both my G5 pads and Prolaces came in yesterday! Today I’ll be picking up the pads as well as returning the V1 Pro+ I bought seeing as it’s no longer needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered a pair on July 7th and got an email saying they shipped on the 8th, for what it's worth. So if that was an issue, it doesn't look like it's effecting time to put out the orders now. Hoping that the shipping time is on track, but covids gonna covid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyGrips13 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Ok, I want to transfer my Prolaces from one set of pads to another. However, I used Loctite when I installed them and they’re not budging. I’ve used a heat gun and had no luck. Is there a solution I should try to loosen the Loctite?

dreadlocked1 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Which color did you use? From reading this link, purpke and blue can be broken but red requires some serious heat. https://itstillruns.com/remove-loctite-bolts-5201363.html Personally, I would cut the Prolaces free of the leather and make my own TGN spec and attach with skate lace.

I don’t remember what color the container was but the glue itself is clear. I think the bigger issue I’m having is I’m getting no torque because the nut-end isn’t flat-sided, so I have to hold it with pliers while using a screwdriver or drill on the other side. I’m not interested in cutting the leather apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not interested in cutting the leather apart. If you are ok with losing the nut/bolt, I would suggest using a Dremel to either cut a bigger notch or to grind away the nut/bolt enough to separate the nut and pull out the bolt. If you wish to keep the bolt intact, you should try to cut a new notch in the nut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichMan Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Anyone use the Trav spec ones? Are they that much longer? Feedback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raidersgoalie Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I have the trav spec. I have a 9.5 skate. I had the double knot at the toe bridge to tighten m up. They come long, but easy to adjust tho. But ,but on install the bungie came loose from the velcro/ leather. So it was just the skate lace ,armor and no elasticity. Looked at the stitching and there was only one pass of thread. So i got the miz to go over the bungie and repair the quality control. Was gonna send m back,but was gonna take to long. After the repair they where ok. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichMan Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) *Borrowing this pic from @WillyGrips13 I'm looking for some white leather folds like the red one in the pic below. Pro-Laces won't sell the parts separately. I'm willing to buy a used standard set-up in white, near new or in great shape. Please DM me if you can help. Thanks Edited August 30, 2021 by RichMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indykrap Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I have joined the club. Upgrading from Kenesky toe ties (and Monsters before them). Order took exactly a week to arrive, though I'm in Canada so that might have made it easier. Super solid and easy to install, so I'm excited to give it a try soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichMan Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I got me the Trav spec 1.0 some weeks ago. A couple games in with them and I'm happy. They are longer than the original Pro Lace (which I also own) and with my size 9 skates, I cross the cord once in the front, go all the way to the back and cross it through once and then over top and I still have a little slack which takes the tension off of my stiff ankles. The original ones would only loop through at the front and up and they would feel so tight, especially since the GT2s don't have much of a toe bridge drop to them.

raidersgoalie Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Having the bungie cord as a toe tie ,do u think it would put more tension on the knees. Mcl, acl. With a skate lace style theres not that consistent pressure or tension on the knee ligaments. Hurt my knee last week. Not sure if this could have been a contributing factor. I have only used skate lace toe ties Pryor to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
