The BNT is Bont’s simple and classical inline speed skate boot. The lines are clean and uncomplicated.
The base of the boot uses 100% carbon fiber with Bont’s famous epoxy resin that is heat moldable. The padding is neoprene which is a closed-cell foam that does not absorb water. This speed skating boot is ultra-lightweight as it has no bumpers or thermoplastic or zippers. The carbon base of the boot has a matte finish that is lighter than the usual gloss finish found on most inline speed skates.
The outer skin is made from Durolite which is usually reserved for the Bont Vaypor and the liner is Suede-L which feels great with or without socks on.
The mounting blocks are made of aluminum with a hardened steel nut. Did you know that Bont has never received a single skate returned due to mounting block issues? Our system is foolproof. The mounting screws have Loctite to stop them from coming undone during a race.
The boots tongue has ventilation to keep your feet cool and also velcro to hold it in place. The tongue padding is comfortable and stops lace bite. The laces are waxed and have very little stretch.
The boot is built on a last that has a tighter heel than normal to hold your foot as tight as possible and give a feel as close to custom as possible. This boot is designed for professional racers so the BNT inline boot is very responsive and not suitable for skaters who want a very padded boot.

The Avenger Hardcore 110mm inline skate 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 110mm 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. MPC wheels have won more world titles in the last 10 years than any other wheel manufacturer.
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 with a 110mm outer diameter. 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 Gold 608 Inline Self Centering Spacers 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.
Are you looking to buy the fastest and best roller skate bearing on the market? You have found them. We built this bearing from scratch with JESA of Switzerland. Not only did we use aerospace-grade steel for the outer race, but we also double-polished the outer and inner race to provide the least amount of friction possible. The balls go through a number of stages of polishing, far more than any standard ABEC 5, 7, or 9 bearing to make sure that they are as round as possible. To help reduce drag, Jesa increased the radial clearance providing slightly fewer total contact ball patches. Additionally, the lightweight plastic cages allow for lower rolling resistance. Finally, we use a special lightweight racing oil from Germany called Kluber oil to top the bearing off. The result is the fastest steel skate bearing on the market.
- Bearing type: 608 8mm
- Dimension: 8mm core, 22 outer diameter, 7mm width
- Protection: 1-Z shield
- Cage: TN9-plastic cage
- Ball complement: 7 pieces
- Ball material: High-grade steel
Pack of 16 pieces.
To ensure all of this hard work in creating the bearing actually works in practice, our professional inline skating team which includes a number of world champions tests the bearings in real work conditions to confirm that these are the best roller skate bearings. We complete back to back lap time comparisons as well as roll tests. Our roller derby team tests the strength of the bearings in bouts. Our testing confirms that there is no faster steel bearing than the Bont 608 steel roller skate bearing.
