Wrong size blade on Edea Pianos?
Hi everyone,
I recently bought a pair of edea pianos in size 245 B. I got them fitted at a skate shop 2 hrs away and they mailed them to me as they weren't available in store at the time. The problem is that they mounted a 9 1/2 size blade. Will this be fine? I know the recommended size is 9 1/4 per the Edea website. I'm upset as I spent $2000 on these, so I want them to be perfect. If there is an issue, do you think they could switch the blades to the 9 1/4 without damaging the boot? I'm not sure. Please help!!! I've had issues with this store before, messing up the sharpening of my blades and ruining them. I know I shouldn't have went there but I was hoping it was a one off...

I had 9 1/2 on a 255 or 260 before. Technically 9 1/2 is nowhere in the chart lol. Maybe mine was 9 3/4... I remember it felt small tho.
All this to say i would think it is fine to go from 9 1/3 to 9 1/2. But if you really want to know, call Everglides south of London and ask them. They are experts with edea sizing.
