Deciding on new skates?

[MHuff]

My knees get sore easy w/ running so I figure skating would be a bit more fluid for them. I have looked at some skates and have a few in mind.

K2 EXO 6.1
K2 MOTO
K2 MOTO 90

This would be for recreation and cardio. I was wondering what the max wheel size were for the EXO and MOTO. They are pretty much the same skate just a newer version am I right? I plan on using these once the snow lifts bout 5 times a week for at least an hr each time out. Does that change the type of skate or wheel sizes?

Whats the speed and manueverability difference between 84mm and 90mm?

Thanks for your help

The 2007 Exo would be the newer version..

All are great skates. If wanting just for cardio, I would stick with the 6.1 if still available in your size, the new Exo, or the Moto. Moto 90 with 90mm will be overkill a bit I think for you. Made for longer straighter skates.

Thanks!
