Bont Royal Assassin Wheels: Unleash Your Skating Potential The Bont Royal Assassin Wheel is here to redefine your skating experience. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail and cutting-edge materials, these wheels are the epitome of performance and innovation. Unmatched Urethane Formula for Superior Performance Unlike mass-produced wheels, the Royal Assassin Wheel features a premium urethane formula developed by renowned urethane expert Scott Corey. This exotic urethane delivers unparalleled rebound, grip, and durability, elevating your skating to new heights. The Royal Assassin's urethane is gravity poured, ensuring a perfect distribution and eliminating inconsistencies often found in injected wheels. Precision-Engineered Aluminum Hubs for Unrivaled Responsiveness Aircraft-Grade Aluminum: The Royal Assassin Wheel boasts a 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum hub for maximum strength, rebound, and a precise bearing seat. Lightweight Design: Extensive machining reduces unnecessary weight, resulting in a hub that is both incredibly strong and remarkably light. Optimized Shape and Grooves for Instant Performance Skater-Informed Design: The shape of the Royal Assassin Wheel, especially the lip, has been meticulously crafted based on feedback from top skaters, ensuring a feel that translates to instant performance. Unique Grooving Pattern: The grooving pattern, featuring a double-cut design, virtually eliminates break-in time, allowing you to unleash the full potential of the wheels right out of the box. Embrace the Uniqueness: Handcrafted Bont Royal Assassin Wheels Bont's commitment to crafting high-performance wheels by hand means that each Royal Assassin wheel is a unique creation, shaped by artistry and the nature of premium urethane. Bont strives for excellence; the handmade process and materials can result in subtle variations that add character and authenticity to your wheels. Here are a few natural occurrences you might expect: 1. Air Bubbles This high-performance urethane may contain tiny air bubbles, a natural part of the manufacturing process. These are harmless and won't affect performance. They have specific criteria to ensure these bubbles are minimal: Skate surface: Up to 3 bubbles, each 3mm or smaller, not grouped together. Wheel Face and Lip: Up to 2 bubbles, each 2mm or smaller, not grouped together. Back of the wheel: Up to 2 bubbles, each 4mm or smaller, not grouped together. 2. Streaks The face of the wheel may exhibit subtle streaks, adding a unique visual touch. 3. Slight Hub Scratches Before pouring the urethane, the hub is prepared through sandblasting and priming. A clamp during this process can sometimes leave a tiny imperfection on the hub. 4. Grooves They hand-buff the grooves in each wheel, ensuring a faster break-in period. This personal touch means each wheel will be slightly different, showcasing the artistry of the final buff. These natural variations are not defects; they are a testament to the handcrafted nature of your Bont Royal Assassin wheels. We believe they add to the charm and individuality of each wheel, making them truly one-of-a-kind. The natural-colored urethane may yellow when exposed to sunlight. To maintain its original look, avoid direct sun exposure. The wheel’s lip may appear slightly more yellow than the rest due to the manufacturing process—this is normal. These high-performance wheels are not designed for drag-to-stop use. Flat spotting from excessive dragging or hub damage from incorrect bearing installation is not covered under warranty. Flat spotting is a characteristic of urethane under excessive friction and can occur on all roller skate wheels.
