> 3 dayThese are terrible bearings. Using them I fell three times. In my previous 25 years of inline skating I had only fallen twice, and one of those times was the first time I put on inline skates. They just dont turn freely at all. Im going back to my two-year-old bearings as soon as I get them cleaned and lubed.

04-06-2025If you are on a budget for bearings that are easy to clean Id recommend these. I have 2 sets of these along with a set of mini logos and super swiss sixs. my first set is 5 YEARS old! and still going strong! and i just recently bought a set a month ago for my back up wheels. They have a great wheel spin especially if you ride a harder wheel! These dont take a long time to break in and they last for a long time if you do maintenance on these at least once every 2 weeks. They are good quality!

> 3 dayThese are the best bearings ever. I know theyve came out with newer ones but theyre more expensive and if you cant afford them these ones are AMAZING. Ive been using the same ones for about two years now and they still work like new. I cruise around my town and they just fly. If you cant handle speed I wouldnt buy them though because they will definitely make you go fast!

> 3 dayI bought two packs of these (eight bearings per pack). One pack was fine, however, with the other pack, 2 of the 8 bearings were bad. Ive been using 608 bearings for years, so I know what to expect from them. That said, six of the bearings spun fine once I spun them a bunch, however the other two bearings dont spin smoothly -- it seems like one or more of the ball bearings inside the bearing may be bad. Thankfully I didnt need all 16, so I had enough, but its disappointing that two of the bearings are bad and are not useful given the high cost of these bearings.

| 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. |
