Customer Comments
Bones CERAMIC Reds skate bearings 608 - 16 pack - Superior steels used in Super REDS and swap the steels balls for grade 5, silicone nitride, hot isostatic-pressed ceramic balls and you have Bones Ceramic Super REDS. Top quality, ultra high-performance bearings for 40% less than the price of Bones Swiss Ceramics. Bones Ceramic REDS are lighter, and provide faster acceleration, because the balls weigh much less. They create less friction and are thus faster than Super REDS, with or without lubricant! When you get dirt into your ceramic Super REDS, the ceramic balls will help to re-polish the steel races flat again, providing a self-healing benefit because ceramic balls are so much harder than steel. Finally, ceramic balls won't rust, further lengthening their life.

- 5 stars - Fantasticly smooth rolling
Review Date 2010-08-01 - Helpfulvotes 2 - Unhelpfulvotes 0 - Verfied Buyer? Yes -
Amazingly smooth rolling. I was coasting with someone who was skating to keep up. I routinely skate on a asphalt bike paths that have some rough patches but generally well maintained but with some "sandy" patches near bridges. I skate about 10-11 mph (per bikers statements!) and go on outings of about 1 hour. I skate very hard and I am hard on my equipment. My last set of bearings I overheated on my long skates and them getting dusty. Since I switched to Bones Red Ceramic I have skated 10's of hours and MANY MILES and had to only add Bones Speed Cream twice. I rotate my wheels every 3 or so days. I highly suggest anyone who skates for long periods of time to get Bones Reds Ceramic!!

Ok, so when I was considering buying this product I was kind of nervous about spending so much money, and afraid that they might not meet my standards. When I read the other reviews I was convinced to buy them. THEY ARE GREAT!!!! The differance was huge! I changed one bearing and compared the bearings by spinning the wheels. The first wheel spun for about 15 seconds while the bones bearing made the wheel spin for about forty five seconds. I was amazed! I would recomend these skate bearings to any one (except my competitors)!

- 5 stars - So good it felt like cheating
Review Date 2010-10-07 - Helpfulvotes 1 - Unhelpfulvotes 1 - Verfied Buyer? Yes -
I used these for the first time in the Berlin Inline Marathon 2010. They were so quick, even compared to the very fast ILQ9s I was used to, it felt like cheating - on some sections of the race, I was coasting and still overtaking people who were pushing hard. Only downside was, the race was very, very wet and I didn't get them out of my skates & dried off in time so despite a couple of days cleaning subsequently, they are definitely the worse for wear. However that's all down to me, not the product - they are simply great bearings.

I bought these bearings for my scooter, thinking that they would be great, but they are the same speed as my stock phoenix abec-7 bearings. I would not recomend them, especially for the price that you pay. Just go with regular boneswiss bearings.

Review Date 2011-12-14 - Helpfulvotes 0 - Unhelpfulvotes 0 - Verfied Buyer? Yes -
I'd always wanted ceramic bearings but I guess I should've sprung for the more expensive ones. I thought my wheels would be very fast and get more roll action. Sorta disappointed.
