Bearings Upgrade?

**WolfOnWheels** · 10-13-2009 07:10 PM

So I was wanting to upgrade my bearings from the Abec 3's that came with my board. What are some good bearings that I could get? Preferably some that could be found at a skateshop, no ordering online.

Bones Reds are great bearings. They'll cost you about $15, and will be at almost every skate shop.

Unless you are a professional speedboarder, they'll be all you need.

Even professional speedboarders don't need anything more.

And Bones Reds are great bearings.

Biltins, Bones Reds.

I'll be picking up some Reds myself as soon as I get some money together.

Once I went to Biltins there was no reason to look anywhere else. The end of speedrings and spacers forever!!!

Or some Biltins.... Spend the extra 10 bucks, save yourself the hassle of speedrings and bearing spacers.
