Bones Bearings Super Reds
Description
Bones Super REDS skateboard bearings are designed from the ground up to be the best bearing at their price. They aren't just REDS with extra polishing. Super REDS use higher quality steel races, better grade balls, and a superior surface finish for a bearing that's as fast as REDS but quieter, smoother, and longer lasting.
You can spot them by their black shield and laser-engraved races. Like every Bones bearing, they're Skate Rated and pre-lubricated with Speed Cream racing lubricant.
Who Bones Super REDS Are For
- REDS riders ready for an upgrade
- Skaters who want a quieter, smoother roll
- Anyone who wants longer bearing life without Swiss prices
- Street, park, and transition skaters
Skate Rated, Not ABEC Rated
ABEC ratings were created for industrial machinery, not skateboarding. They measure tolerances at speeds far beyond anything a skateboard sees, and don't account for the side loads, impacts, and dirt that skate bearings deal with every session. Bones designs every bearing to its own Skate Rated standard, with clearances, tolerances, materials, and lubricant chosen specifically for skating.
Features

- Better quality and grade balls
- Superior surface finish
- Single non-contact, removable rubber shield
- High speed nylon ball retainer
- Pre-lubricated with Speed Cream
Benefits
- As fast as REDS, but quieter and smoother
- Longer lasting
- Easy to clean and re-lube
- Premium feel at a mid-range price
