bones reds bearings
srg bearings are manufactured in China to our Bones Skate Rated specifications in a manufacturing facility dedicated to producing the highest quality skate bearings in China. They are inspected twice before being shipped to skaters and offer the greatest combination of performance, durability and low cost in the industry. Because they offer near Bones Swiss performance at a fraction of the cost, they have become the best selling bearing brand in the hong kong .
Many people have some trouble deciding which type of bearing to use in their setup. There’s so many choices out there and the prices vary considerably between bearings.
Reds are “Skate Rated” by Bones, a unique system that Bones has developed through years of research and experience in the bearing industry. In addition Bones Reds come pre-lubricated with Speed Cream and are easy to clean. If your looking for a cheap but high quality bearing the Bones Reds are my recommendation for any skater out there.
I’ve personally been using the same pair of Bones Reds bearings in one of my setup’s now for over a year, and with minimal maintenance they still roll beautifully. I put these things through torture too, lots of rain/snow riding during the winter and lots of downhill and big slides.
Cleaning the bearings is extremely simple after you finish that session in the rain, with an easy to remove shield. A simple rinse in alcohol or mineral spirits and few drops of Bones Speed cream or lube and there good to go. The Bones Red bearings are certainly well made and I have yet to have a problem with them so far.
Keep in mind these are NOT the best bearing out there, but for the money ($20 or less usually), you really can’t go wrong with picking a pair up. Of course other bearings like Swiss and Ceramics will outperform the Bones Reds in certain circumstances like downhill racing but for your everyday riding good luck telling a difference.Even if you are a high performance rider these will still be handy to use in rain and other rough conditions where you wouldn’t want to risk those expensive Bones Swiss bearings.
Whether a new skater or a seasoned pro the Bones Reds are a solid budget bearing that can take the punishment and keep on rolling. Go grab a pair!
