We have been trying to produce the fastest wheel in the world for over 25 years. We have finally done it with the avenger and RMHC wheels but it came at a cost. Over $120,000 in development and an astronomical cost per wheel, well outside most skaters' budgets. As a result, we just won't sell any if we apply the usual margins and charge $40-$50 a wheel. That's just ridiculous. So for these 2 wheels, we are just going to sell them directly to customers. It's not an ideal situation but it's the only option we have. They are halo products for the brand. We are still offering them to you but the margins suck. Sorry :(
The Avenger Hardcore wheel is a GAME CHANGER.
The Avenger Hardcore is the first mass-produced aluminum hub inline racing wheel. We chose aluminum as the hub material because it offers more rebound than plastic or nylon hubs. The Avenger Hardcore inline speed skating wheel is produced by MPC for Bont and it has recorded the highest ever rebound score of any wheel MPC has ever produced.
To ensure the hub is not too stiff we have curved the spokes. CAD-CAM software was used to perfect the weight and rebound of the hub. A mechanical lock is used to ensure the urethane can never be dislodged from the hub. The Avenger has a full 24mm wheel width. The bearing bore is machined before and after anodizing to ensure a perfect fit.
The urethane is poured by MPC and it uses their patented high rebound flex band.
MTECH™PATENT NO.S6,036,278 & 6,227,622B1
- Made in: USA
- Application: Road and Track
- Diameter: 110mm
- Hardness: Firm, X-Firm, XX-Firm
- Bearing size: 608
NOTE: Aluminum hub wheels are more precise than plastic hub wheels so you will need to use 10.2mm spacers like our between the bearings. If you use the regular 10.35mm spacers, it will still work but you may hear some noise when skating. A bearing press is a good idea for inserting and removing bearings from aluminum wheels.
