BonesCeramic Reds Skateboard Bearings 8 Pack

Bearings are bearings but these are a bit better for sure.

had a set of Bones Reds on my old poison wheels. they were good, never had a problem with them. got a new set of thinner poison wheels and there was a sale on these ceramics. these things are awesome. they just seem to keep gliding no matter what i'm doing. the wheels just want to keep turning. smooth as glass. there was a short break in period. they were smooth to begin with, but after a 3 hour test drive they were even better than before. a friend has had the same combo (poison wheels and ceramic bearings) for about 2 years now and his attitude about them is the same as mine. his bearings are just like new with very little maintenance.unless Bones decided to make a full ceramic race/ball bearing i think this will be the only bearing i'll ever use. i dont care about ABEC ratings or any other skate rating...i wouldnt care if these had no ratings at all. these bearings are amazing. get them, try them. these bearings are in a class of their own.

These bearings performed very well after a short break-in period.

Best bearings available aside from the ceramic Swiss $400ish ones. I’ve got a real skater - 6-8 hours a day and these will last a year I am guessing!

Was waiting until I had these for awhile. I put these on my electric skateboard & they are much smoother. I'm usually going 20mph & these have given me another 2-3mph at top speed - which may not sound like much: but is actually a good increase. Less rolling resistance & my wheels just keep spinning. Plus I really like the lower maintenance of Ceramic.When I FIRST got them: They did not roll as well as I thought (although they had oil on when I opened them). Also made some grinding noises.Now: they roll for a long time, smoothly & silently.

The media could not be loaded. Hey I’m not going to say that it’s not worth the money because what is bearing most definitely roll longer and faster than most, and our way more durable than any of its competitors in the ceramic criteria. But if you want my honest opinion, I would rather spend a little bit less on the racer bearings from Bones I found out that they ride just as quick, if not quicker than the bone ceramics. I usually skate around transitions or bowls, so speed is everything.

Quantum leap above the Oust Bearings made popular ib the rat dog video - for the cost they are clearly better over the life of the product than the bones Swiss big six - if I were an aggressive carver I feel the oust may have fared better - but for land paddling down the seawall in Galveston - level and smooth, its not closethe bones Swiss Ceramics purchased 6/14/17 are better than this product, I'm not sure exactly how much better yet.

Roll long, smooth, and quiet. I was on travel and abused them in some rainy weather for about a week. I was amazed when I got home and 7 of the 8 were showed no signs of dirt penetrating the shields and still rolled just like new. One bearing needed cleaning and still produced a little noise after oiling, but it was unnoticeable once I was back rolling on the streets. I'm 200 lbs so these bearings take quite a beating, but hold up incredibly well. Removing the shields is very easy, but be careful not to lose the race and bearings after removing them.
