If you have the money and like to clean and lube every few months, buy them. If you don't, get Reds and go just as fast. Seriously, you could get 3 or 4 sets of new reds for the same price.

What Setup are you running them on?: Currently on my Landyachtz Chinook with Big Zigs and crappy Bear 852's. The new ones are better.

Very expensive but they are very fast and make no noise at all! They arent fast at first but ride them for a couple of days till they break in then they will be super sick and quick...they dont get as dirty and i would recommend these over any other bone bearings...except ceramics.. Overall they are worth the price

i would only recommend these for the average flat ground cruiser.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: little less than a year
What Setup are you running them on?: sector 9 cosmo 2 stock setup.
Typical Discepline?: Transportation, bombn hills, and carvn turns
How much did you pay for them?: 45
Where did you buy them?: Eastern Boarder
What are their weaknesses?: big weakness if you skate every day on big hills, the bearings do get very hot, which in turn melted the rubber shield and shrank it over time. I noticed how slow they had gotten when i bought a new board. when I went to replace these bearings, i noticed the side of the bearing that was inside the wheel had shrunk and actually molded onto the balls themselves. i wont forget to mention all the dirt buildup that worked into them from the problem.
What are their strengths?: They are great bearings out of the box, they just won't last very long if you ride hard.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: this would be a rediculous list.
Would you recommend them?: Undecided
Was this review helpful to you? yes     no
