    did you really just argue the fact that they spin longer? as in you flick it with your hand and it goes longer?

    AND you work at a shop?

    dude. that has nothing to do with their overall capability

    Im %99.9 sure the maximum speed of bearings is the same Reds spin longer than Swiss off the ground, but compared to the Swiss when riding you don't glide as far with each push.
    Basic point, 30 bucks is the absolute most you should pay for any bearings, they all have the ability to reach the same speed it's just some are smoother and with get further with each push!
