where can I get a new single bearing (1, not 8)?
I managed to misplace a single Bones Swiss bearing (just 1 of the 8...), which is the only thing keeping me from completing a low-riding cruising/carving re-build I'm working on (a sanded/de-logoed S9 Bamboo Zen with a new/longer wheelbase, MHS Core/Indy 215s, Bennett and Khiros bushings, and 66mm 78a EW Superballs).
Any kind soul have a spare in their tool/gear box?
Any online stores sell them individually?
Man I want to finish and skate this thing but I don't want to have to buy a new set just for one damn bearing and still have seven extras left...
Ideas?
Thanks.

I believe you can get them in well-equipped hardware stores. Some people use "off-brand" bearings exclusively because they're cheaper and the skaters aren't always sold on Indys or whatever bearings being worth the extra buck.
I THINK the dimensions for the bearings you are looking for are 8x22x7, that's:
# ID (inner diameter)/Bore=8mm
# OD (outer diameter)=22mm
# Width/Height/thickness=7mm
Here's one online place you can look at:
Skateboard Bearing ABEC-7 inline Skate, rollerblade hockey (One Bearing):Ball Bearings:VXB

I saw you can buy 608 (skateboard size) bearings individually at ace hardware but they're like 12$

Don't you worry your pretty stripped head we're gonna get you back to Tyson and your cozy tiger bed.
And then we're gonna find our bestfriend Doug and then we're gonna give him a bestfriend hug.
Doug, Doug, Oh, Doug Douggie Douggie Doug Doug.
But if he's been murdered by crystal meth tweekers, well then we're shit out of luck..

I got it sorted out thanks to another member.
Thanks everyone.

Yeah. Just replace your old ones with a new set, then you will have 7 used bearings for future use. I save my bearings unless they are just too borked to spin. I will send you one if you pay shipping, but for like 10 bucks (even less), you can get a new set.
