Deep Groove Ball Bearing

How to Make My Skate Bearings Faster

Skate bearings are the heart of the skate wheel and what allow the board to go faster. If the bearings are slow, grind when they turn or have completely stopped moving, it is time for cleaning and lubrication. The time and care spent on bearing maintenance will have a big payoff in performance. BonesBearings.com, skateboardballbearings.com and skatelog.com all have great advice on bearing care. These simple steps will help bring the precision bearings back into top shape and make those wheels spin faster.Ball Bearings , Deep Groove Ball Bearing
