The first and the second roller glides each include a wheel, a glide frame, a bearing shaft mount for coupling the wheel, and a wheel side load bearing formed as an arcuate protrusion from each bearing shaft mount and configured to support the exterior lateral periphery of the wheel when coupled to each glide frame.
