5 out of 5 stars unbeatable swiss quality   December 6, 2009

for me, it's almost a toss up between the original bones swiss bearings and the bones super swiss six bearings. in general, i _think_ i like the super swiss sixes a little better. i feel that the super swiss sixes are a little more durable but maybe need to be cleaned more often. also, i feel that the original swiss bearings don't fall apart during cleaning as easily as the super swiss sixes, but their cages are harder to reinstall. in general, i guess the _original_ bones swiss bearings are the industry's gold standard for bearings, but i won't be surprised if the bones super swiss sixes someday replace them. then again, it's so hard to get the skateboarding community off of plain seven ply and onto the better, engineered materials like powerlyte and p2, huh?

i refuse to buy chinese made bearings because china is a country that has horrible labour practices, horrible business practices, and horrible foreign policies. cheap prices hardly come close to make up for those evils. even though many kids swear by bones reds; experienced skateboarders that really care about bearings can tell you that bones reds aren't much better than all the other cheap, chinese bearings; so i refuse to buy them and really only buy swiss bearings although i would be okay with buying american or japanese bearings too.

I've been using these bearings in my inline skates since 2005. My first set survived 2 years on the cobblestone streets of Boston, then another two years on the nasty pavement of NYC. With a cleaning and an oiling every 100 miles or so (once every two weeks, for me), they roll smooth for years. The only reason I have to buy new ones is because I left my first set in alcohol (to degrease them) for too long, and they rusted.

Please be AWARE! This is for 1 (yes ONE) bearing. Regardless of pictures or original pricing ($40 each?) you only get one bearing. So for $14.00 I got enough to do one wheel, GREAT! This was through
Skates on Haight, Inc. DBA skates dot com. not TGM, I would check with them before ordering.

I've always been very happy with Bones Bearings, all of the three different models I've tried. These Original Swiss Competition skate bearings are just as good as their more expensive ones, but not noticeably superior to their less-expensive Reds. There's nothing like a new set of wheels and bearings to make you enjoy roller blading even more.
