> 3 dayTheyre the iconic bearing of skateboarding today, and they live in to the standard. Ive been riding with Reds for 10 years and Ive yet to find a better bearing. Definitely worth.

> 3 dayI used these to build a pipe dolly rig for my video equipment. Put these on high quality wheels and the whole thing moves like its on glass. No roughness, no binding, just exactly what you want for your project. I tried others and they didnt work nearly as well.

Greater than one weekI honestly cant love these bearings enough. Very smooth, very fast, and at a great price. 10/10 Update (12/13/15) Have NEVER cleaned these bearings and theyre just now beginning to slow down. I bought a second set a few days ago and plan to keep the ones I bought ready as a backup set (not that Ill ever need them :D) Without a doubt the best bearings Ive ever skated.

> 3 dayWow! These bearings are so smooth , I use them in my inline skates & skate at the beach & so far, the wheels keep spinning the same consistently & no sand has gotten into the bearing, which used to be a big problem for me with the ABECs. These bearings are so smooth & are fast, but not too fast. I can keep up my skating stride & get a great work out, the big difference in the ABECs & REDZ are that the keep your stride going even if you are just cruising, if you are going down a hill, you still feel in control, but just smoother & you can get going really fast, but then slow down when you want. So far, I am so happy with these bearings & the red bearing covers seem to keep the dirt & sand out! They keep spinning smoothly & the same on all 8 wheels.

| 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. |
