I need to replace a broken wheel on my TravelPro suitcase, and I know that inline skate wheels are a perfect fit. Is there any place in Hua Hin that sells them? I tried the sporting goods store on Market Village 3F, but no deal.
Or, any suitcase replace places? I'm assuming a bona fide TravelPro replacement would be more expensive than a skate wheel, though.
Where to buy inline skate wheels?
Re: Where to buy inline skate wheels?
Kind of what I thought. None here, huh?
About every four to six weeks, I make one-night trips up to Bangkok. Any suggestions for a store near the Silom area that might have them? Would the larger Big C/Tesco stores stock them?

Thanks. Looks like it's between Khlong Toey and Queen Sirikit subway stations, so not so far from Silom via MRT.
Re: Where to buy inline skate wheels?
Am currently on my first trip to BKK since Nereus' post about Skate-Plus. What a great find! The gal that helped me this morning (Rung) was a real trouper.
I had brought a broken wheel, but not the whole assembly, and she worked through all the bits and I think I ended up with a workable solution.
I had no idea there were so many sizes of wheels, much less lengths/diameters of the bolts/axles that hold them on, nor the different types of bearings.
Rung can really "think outside the box," an attribute I find scarce here in the LOS.
So, thanks, Nereus for the recommendation!
