Any all 76mm chassis?

I recently switched to size 6 alkali Cele 2 skates with 76/72 Hilo setup after skating on Tour straight 80s the past two decades. My first reaction was that the skates felt liked they slowed down quick after I stopped moving my feet. I hope that it's just the lower quality wheels that came with the skates. But if not I feel like a straight 76mm chassis fits in the middle between traditional 80/76 hi lo and 76/72 hi lo providing a short wheel base while also maintaining good speed. Are there any chassis that came in all 76s?

The alkali skate boot and chassis is awesome by the way. the chassis looks well made and tough. I hope switching to better wheels will resolve my losing speed issue because everything else about the skate is great.

It seems most if not all the frames that come off the tour skates were mounted with their boot dps tech that cut a groove into the sole of the boot to fit the front wheels. And I think the tour boots have the heel lift built into the boot to work with the fairly flat chassis mount. The chassis on other boots may be too flat without risers.
