Im looking to buy a set of carbon fibre blades with Pathos Fireblade footpockets.

My friend bought the Carbonio GFT Aero soft with Pathos footpockets and red rails and wants to sell but the footpockets are too big. He glued them together with superglue for some reason. Is there any way to remove the rails and blades off the footpockets without damaging anything? And is there any way to remove the superglue stains from the blades too? There isnt much but im a bit picky?

Any help on this would be appreciated, and also what others think of these blades?

No there is no simple or easy method that you can jus buy to make this process go any faster. What youll want is A razor blade and a lot of coaxing. Ive removed my pathos blades from my gft a while ago. Razor helps lift and edge on the pocket, then work your fingers in and start peeling away. I got mine off in about 10 minuets...

BUT...you can rip the rubber very easily. You need to regulate and understand how to coax it with enough force but not enough to rip it.
