Impressive May 9, 2008 I decided to get new wheels for my kids boards, and saw these listed at this great price and with shining reviews, so I figured, go all the way and get them. I did, and they are a nice improvement over what we had, which wasn't cheap stuff in the first place. Skateboard stores will sell you expensive stuff that isn't as good as these, so just buy them yourself and put them in, it is easy, if I could figure it out and do it, so can you.
great bearings April 6, 2008 These may not be top not but they are very well worth the price. I found that each one worked very smoothly right out of the box and was pre-oiled which is nice.
Installation was a snap and I didn't need to look at the manual which came with these. I did wonder what side had to go in towards the skateboard as I've never installed bearings with a removing cap at one side before but they seemed to work either way around.
No oil was included with this box of bearings but I have some extra anyway so that was no problem.
Overall I would suggest anyone looking for lower priced bearings try these. They work very well.
great! April 5, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
these are great bearings for the price, and have a sweet sticker with it.Although you have to break them in a little bit, after you lube them they last about 25 to 30 seconds.
These bearings are fast! February 7, 2008 I popped them in and I was like there isn't any performance difference between world industries abec 7 bearings. It is smooth ride though, that is fact. These bearings are fast. You won't go wrong with them.
I bought rush ceramic titanium and their friggin slow compared to these. These are fast bearings! Not as good as bones swiss, labyrinth, and six. But hey its cheap buy and you can cruise fast. If these get slower just clean them out with some acetone and use bones speed cream lube.
Bones Reds Awesome December 12, 2007 These bearings are awesome and very very smooth even before they have been broken in, Eight bearings come in the package with a BONES REDS sticker!!!
Each bearing has a plastic ball retainer that holds 7 balls. The Bearings are pre-lubed with bones speed cream. They are also VERY silent. Only one of the sides of each bearing is shielded, (you are supposed to put the unshielded side towards the inside of the wheel). They are very easy to clean, and provide instructions. These bearings comparable to bearings that are MUCH more expensive. For under $15 you can't as for anything better. They could easily be priced at $30+ without losing customers. 5 STARS EXCELLENT PRODUCT.
