Undercover Nick Lomax 80mm / 88A – Urban Freeskate Inline Wheels
The Undercover Nick Lomax 80mm / 88A wheels are high-performance inline skate wheels developed in collaboration with professional skater Nick Lomax. Designed for urban skating, they combine speed, responsiveness and control in a setup chosen by Nick for his own skating style.
This edition features a new German-made urethane formula, tested by Nick Lomax and Nicola Torelli during their skating sessions in Barcelona.
The combination of 80mm diameter and 88A hardness is Nick Lomax’s preferred setup: a versatile wheel configuration designed for efficient rolling, agile manoeuvres and a firm, responsive feel on urban terrain.

UHR Urethane: Responsive Rolling Performance
The Nick Lomax wheels feature Undercover’s UHR (Ultra High Rebound) compound, developed to deliver high rebound and efficient rolling performance. The German urethane formula is designed to provide consistent performance in urban skating, where wheels need to respond to changes in speed, turns and varied terrain.
The 88A hardness provides a firm ride and can offer good wear resistance. Actual grip and durability will depend on the skating surface, temperature and individual skating style.

80mm and 88A: Nick Lomax’s Preferred Setup
The 80mm diameter offers a balance of speed, acceleration and manoeuvrability. It is a popular size for urban freeskating because it allows efficient rolling while maintaining good responsiveness through turns and changes of direction.
The 88A hardness delivers a firm, direct rolling feel for skaters who prefer harder, more responsive wheels. Compared with softer wheels, they generally deform less under load, although grip may be more limited on certain surfaces.
The rounded profile supports smooth transitions through turns and edge changes, making these wheels a strong option for technical urban skating.

TPU Core and Floating Aluminium Spacer
The Undercover Nick Lomax wheels feature a TPU core, designed to support the urethane tread during skating. They also include an 8mm floating aluminium spacer, which forms part of the bearing assembly and helps provide proper bearing alignment when the axle is tightened.
These details make the wheels a compelling option for skaters looking to upgrade their urban setup with high-quality components.

Who Are Undercover Nick Lomax Wheels For?
These wheels are ideal for intermediate and advanced skaters who practise urban freeskating, technical street skating and everyday city skating, and who want an 80mm wheel with 88A hardness.
They are particularly suitable for skaters who prefer a firm, responsive wheel with efficient rolling performance. If you mainly skate on very rough, wet or slippery surfaces, consider whether this hardness offers the grip you need for your usual conditions.
