    Default Where to buy cheap decent bearings.

    Hey what website / product do you guys recommend for cheap but good bearings? please take shipping cost (5 dollars out of state) into account i live in cali

    I usually get mile high but they are same price as bone reds from longboardskater because of shipping.

    so let me know your inputs!

    I could also use speed rings and spacers so if the bearigns come with them but cost a lil more i wouldnt mind.

    My Reds always seem to lose their smoothness very quickly, I mean not just because I'm saying MHS is better, my Rush bearings and Daddies bearings feel better IMO, but MHS all the way still, Daddies are sorta expensive.

    Dude MHS are like $9 and Biltins are like $30.

    But if you can drop the cash on Biltins, I would go for it. I have 2 sets and swear by them.

    Get the MHS 5-pack and you will be set on bearings and spacers for a couple of years.

    Get the 5 pack def! Unless you plan on buying all your wheels from there which is not a bad choice or deal at all. Alright no more wondering, go get your MHS bearings! Don't forget them spacers =)

    Amphetamines are the best (apart from MHS) dual-seal bearings I've ridden.

    honestly just go for the biltins, i've dropped money on all different kinds of bearings and bought 3 sets of biltins last year. so far they're the best designed bearings i've ever seen. they're servicable (in a manner of speaking) and in theory should last way longer than any regular style bearing. so the long and short of it is

    $30 now or $10 every time you need to replace bearings. (in my exsperience as often as every ~hundred miles or so )
