Product Description
A rollerball pen that works like a fountain pen, the Super5 Ink Roller is a great option for rollerball users who want to use the wide range of inks typically reserved for fountain pens. It accepts international standard cartridges and converters, along with the Super5 ink converter, which is required if you’d like to use the company’s proprietary waterproof ink Read More

Received my Super5 Ink Roller today along with the extra purchase converter. Not for nothing BUT the converter does NOT fit in the barrel...either it is the wrong converter sent to me, or the barrel is not designed for one.... My second disappointment with Massdrop pens...

donatodeI have the same issue, not sure wtf I'm supposed to do with this converter since it just rattles around in the barrel and doesn't actually fit anything. There are no instructions on the internet for how this is supposed to work.

Could anyone say if it'll accept long international standard cartridges or just short?

oiralireI have the fountain pens by super5, same design. I believe the inside of the barrel will pull a long cartridge off when you take the pen apart. It has enough room for two standard cartridges, but one is upside down (because it is too wide and will stick in the barrel if not turned around.)

I bought the green one last time. I was not impressed by the quality. The plastic seemed cheap. Also, it was a little leaky. I have only used it once.

Came to lament that it's only a dollar discount, sad to find that the pen has a common issue with the quality of the ball.

I have seen a lot of commentary on ink and this pen. When I bought it, I wanted to be able to use a fraud-resistant ink, but I found that my ink was drying quickly and the ball would squeak or, ugh, stop rolling altogether.
The magic answer? The Polar ink line from Noodler’s, where some (if not all) colors have a lubricant added. I know Polar Blue does. This pen has become an EDC pen in my briefcase, and I can pull it out without a second thought to write a check or write on something where my fountain pen is not going to work (like my hand or a cheap napkin).

JKnepperI've found that Parker Quink and cheap Sheaffer ink flow well through my Super5. I've also used Pelikan, Lamy, J. Herbin, and some generic cartridges from Ebay. The generic cartridges are hit and miss. My favorite inks in my pen are Noodler's Kung Te-Cheng and Polar Purple.

I have used my Super5 a lot and it squeaked a little bit. I rolled mine of some of the stone paper and that helped smooth it out. I love my Super5 pen, I got the Dublin green last time and am ordering two this time. I also have a Lycra Calypso I got off of Ebay that writes fairly well too.

I just got mine and inked it with Diamine Bilberry ink, which is a pretty wet ink in my experience. It doesn't squeak like others have mentioned, but generally I find the pen is quite cheaply made and I doubt I'll write with it very much. Doesn't feel like it's worth $30.99.

Just drew 4 pages of circles and pen still squeaks and catches as I write. This pen is absolutely horrible.

Received the roller. The ball scratches and squeaks as I write. Writes smooth but you'll feel the ball catching and squeaks like mice inside the pen. If drawing straight line then doesn't scratch, but when writing words t would scratch like crazy. It's like the all can't handle circular micro movements. When closing the cap it also lacks a distinctive "click" feel but rather a mushy closing feel.

The roller writes beautifully at times, but is inconsistent. Any tips to have it write more smoothly all the time? I'm using Noodlers standard blue ink.

coyotecaiHave you have any issues with excessive ink flow? I loaded my pen with Noodler's Baystate Blue and just touching the pen to the surface of paper makes it start flowing out all over the place. Not sure if I just got a dud or if Noodlers inks are just too flowy for this type of ballpoint.
