  • Patent number: 5765928
    Abstract: A method of constructing an in-line skate wheel provides a hub assembly that is entirely reusable after a perimeter tire section is worn and disposed of. This wheel assembly creates an entrapment of component forms within this tire section that is locked together when hub halves are fasteners together as a hub assembly. These individual wheel components require the minimum of materials necessary to perform their tasks thereby reducing wheel weight. The preferred embodiment of these leaner components further promotes the efficient consumption of the tire profile during skating which reduces the cost of servicing worn wheels through the replacement of only these leaner tire sections.
