Last review said it. They are underrated, andwork great when used with other bushings. I used the yellows and the black ones, and both stood up to my streetluges. Yellows were more responsive (I assume from being softer then the black ones). They come a little oiled too! Randal is also a class act guy!

There are ceramic bearings and other bearings that cost 5 times as much. What sets them apart is that there are built in spacers, which could not be stressed enough of how they handle better using that technology. I use them, I know.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 2 years
What Setup are you running them on?: 3 Randal 180mm trucks on a Streetluge. The reason they are the best is because the have integrated spacer which handles the sideloads better. However they are not shielded, and everytime I use them I get the grinding sound of dirt in them. MAKE SHIELDED BILTINS CHRIS!!!!
Typical Discepline?: Streetluge
How much did you pay for them?: 19.99 a set
Where did you buy them?: sk8trip and MileHighskates
What are their weaknesses?: They are not shielded, so dirt gets into them instantly
What are their strengths?: Built in spacer which handles the sideloads better and makes for a more solid bearing against the truck.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: None. (I could say I tried others, but that would be lying). I have confidence in them.
Would you recommend them?: Yes

I bought new black hard bushings, and they dont fit in my 210mm trucks, I had to shave down the top bushing almost 1/2 inch. Would like them to be more 'bulky", other than that, they work as they should with minimal rebound for the hard ones ( used in a streetluge)
