1. We are owned and run by skaters!

Ain't no-one as passionate and caring about skating as we are! We have been deep in the skate community for over 17 years as skaters and are widely respected in our skate circle. So we absolutely have a vested interest in giving you an excellent experience as well as excellent skates! This also means we know lots of stuff about rollerskates too. We have a HUGE amount of accumulated knowledge - we're basically walking encyclopedias!

2. We have a physical store as well as online

You can try on boots and skates as well as look at products in person AND speak to a real live human. Our specialty is our skate fitting service where we spend a whole heap of time with you getting the right fit. In fact sometimes customers spend upwards of 3 hours choosing their dream skates!

3. Our stock

We are like an Aladdin's Cave of rollerskates! We have full fitting stock of most of our major brands and unique access to many more products that we can custom order in for you. We often operate as a J.I.T (Just In Time) business which means we keep small amounts of stock in the shop and re-order in often. This means we can constantly update our products, getting in the latest things for you and we're not sitting on huge amounts of old products. If you don't see something on our site but know it exists....contact us and we very well might get it in for you! All our online orders are fulfiled from the stock we have at our physical premises, so we always know what's available. In order to be able to carry as many items as possible and give you the most amount of stuff to choose from, some things we order especially in for you at the point of purchase.

4. Our Distance Fitting Service

Created in 2019, we realised we had many UK customers who simply couldn't get in to see us. So we started this service where we can send multiple sizes of skate boots to you to try on at home, then once you've decided we mount them up and you got yourself a new pair o' rollerskates. This has been super successful in getting the right fitting boots for our customers across the country.

5. Postage tracking, Easy Returns and Exchanges

We send all our items tracked and our system sends you an email with the tracking number so you know exactly when to expect your order. We have a returns and exchanges portal accessible from your customer profile on our website which enables you to request returns and receive returns labels via Royal Mail or Parcelforce.

6. Personalised Website Content and Product Knowledge

Since day 1 we have always photographed our products in house against our iconic DTS back drop. We want you to know that we have physically looked at and tested most products in our store. When we get new products in, we can then write about them from experience. You'll find our product descriptions, blogs and FAQs full of personalised content rather than just cut and pasted from the manufacturer's website.

7. Savant-level dedication to knowing stuff

Want to know if that wheel will fit that axle? Which plate size will fit that boot? Which wide truck is compatible with which plate? Which boot you will fit based on what your current boot is despite the sizing being wackadoodle different? We can tell you because we have spent years worth of our time collating information, creating spreadsheets and compatibility charts.

8. We're Great When We Make Mistakes!

We can't get it right all the time but we reckon the mark of a great business is being able to get it right when we've got it wrong. Rest assured you won't need to get stern with us and start a fight to get a wrong righted. We want to make sure you'e happy so don't worry if you need to tell us we did a boo-boo!

9. We're Inclusive!

We are woman and queer owned. We are big fans of the LGBTQ+ folk, we are trans-inclusive and anti-racist. We support many local community groups and are a welcoming and safe space for those who belong to marginalised communities.

10. Free Stuff!

Everyone likes free stuff right? We always include goodies in your online orders and when we send your gear out.

Standard will be for 608 bearings, not Bont's micro-bearing 688!

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

Our commitment to crafting high-performance wheels by hand means that each Bont Royal Assassin wheel is a unique creation, shaped by artistry and the nature of our premium urethane. While we strive 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 Our high-performance urethane may contain tiny air bubbles, a natural part of the manufacturing process. These are harmless and won't affect performance. We 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 We 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.
