bones swiss is how well they keep dirt out and shit right? i mean they will probably last awhile but i dont think they are made for speed.. ive seen 2 people in my town get them (for skateboard) and both werent fast but they are still holding up good today

 

[Tyler Ha1e]

bones swiss is what i use, they arent very fats at first but after a couple hours of riding ther are fine. ive had the same ones for about 4 months, and they are still pretty clean.

i got some bsb swiss about a week ago, they're pretty nice...

i got lucky ceramics, there holding good and there fast. there kinda pricy. im gonna try soaking them in windex and lubing them and then ill sell them to me friend

 

[djlevi1991]

i mean soaking some other bearings and selling them not my ceramics

i had nothing else to use so i soaked my abec 5's over night in gas line antifreeze lol, and it worked awesome. no rust or anything and are really fast.

 

[Tyler Boner]

i got bones swiss a few days ago. hahaha, and cary tried my scoot and lauched out of the bowl like 7-8 feet.lol it was crazy. so ya they're really fast, smooth, and don't make a sound.

What oil do you reccomend I re-lube my bearings with?

 

[gorrilaman]

WD-40 is not a lubricant. Its crap for bearings. At first it goes fast and later your bearings spoil. Go skateboard forums and read. Everyone who tried them agrees that its no good as it spoils your bearing.

Fast bearings, get Mini Logo . I have tested them and they are good. Bones reds seems to be good from what people say but I have never tried them. Don't think that more expensive = faster.Don't buy those $100 bones. I think its not worth it. Bones I think is over priced but its not a problem. As long as they continue giving good things, people should be willing to pay. I got people who make my own ceramic bearings. The fastest of course and strongest. The only problem is that the cheapest there are is 45 USD. Pig ceramics. If you want, I might be able to sell you or trade you one for fun but I am no bearing company.

Lube, use any lube. Expensive does not mean good. Bicycle chain lube is pretty good too.Grease is ulfilterd, ugly, greasy and crap.
