> 3 dayThese bearings are great for skating around at a skate park but they get dirty as hell if you street skate. If you longboard get mini-logos they are cheaper and keep the crap out the inner racings longer and are just as fast as reds but it may not be the same for you. All in all they are alright.

> 3 dayI use these with my Travepro suitcase to replace the stock bearings. Makes rolling the suitcase super easy and quiet. Ive not had to replace the bearings after more than 750,000 miles of flying.

> 3 dayWhen I first started skateboarding everyone always bragged about Bones reds. So of coarse I got them and I loved the bearings alot. Its been about 8 years later now skating mostly reds and I dont feel the same way at all anymore. These bearings have seemed to go down alot in quality. They seem ok and kinda smooth at first, but they seem to wear down quite quickly and break as well.(Yes I clean and oil my bearings about every month) I have broken close to 20 of these now and im done with them. Im just skateing some cheap rush bearings now and I like them alot more.

> 3 dayI skated back in the 70s, there were few choices of bearings, but most were made in Japan; now everyone sells the same Chinese bearing, just different packaging. I am making a old school board for my memories, and it will displayed, not ridden. I will say I dont like what appears to be just 6-8 bearings in the case; old school, the bearings inside the races where much larger and more of them to boot

> 3 dayI didnt know much about bearings until I heard about these being one of the leaders. Decided to try them out and it made such a great different. Highly recommend these.

| Description | Bones REDS are near Bones Swiss performance at a fraction of the cost. They offer the greatest combination of performance, durability and low cost in the industry. | BIG BALLS are engineered to roll faster and last longer by using (6) 17% larger balls like our legendary Bones Super Swiss 6 bearings. | Super REDS are designed from the ground up to be the best bearing on the market at this cost range. | Bones Race REDS bearings are based on the Bones Super REDS by using higher quality steel races, better quality and grade balls, and a superior surface finish. | Take the world class steels used in Super REDS and swap the steel balls for top quality grade 5, silicone nitride, hot, isostatic pressed ceramic balls and you have Bones Ceramic REDS. |
| Advantages | Skate Rated clearances, tolerances, materials and lubricant provide the best performance and durability possible. | The larger balls let you roll faster with a higher top speed, faster acceleration, and turn fewer times, providing less wear and longer life. | Higher quality steel races, better quality and grade balls, and a superior smooth finish results in a bearing that is as fast as REDS but quieter, smoother, and longer lasting. | A precision ground extended race eliminates the need for speed rings and spacers, and provides better alignment of the bearings when the axle nut is tightened. | These ones are lighter and provide faster acceleration because the balls weigh much less and they create less friction and are thus faster than Super REDS, with or without lubricant! Ceramic balls will not rust further lengthening their life. |
