As far as zealous bearings are concerned, they are much slower than They have the advantage of being more durable and staying clean, in addition to being easier to maintain I also use
However, my preferred tool is the Swiss bearing puller, so it's an easier answer to your question. I have to agree with you that ZEALOUS IS GREAT! There are about ten longboards in my son's collection, which means the bearings have to be cleaned constantly. You probably already know that Zealous bearings last a long time, are sealed on both sides, are easy to clean, improve sliding wheels, and are easy to use and throw away after roughly a year. There will never be another bearing to clean for me! Occasionally, these cannot be used for narrower wheels because of the spacer depth, but that is very rare and they do offer another version for those I am confident that you will not regret purchasing Zealous.
There needs to be some break-in time. With their ability to break in quickly at high speeds, Zealous bearings were designed for downhill use. If you push them, you will have to break them more slowly. It's amazing how well they perform once they're broken in. Many downhill racers choose them because they hold the record at multiple venues around the world.
I am pretty sure yes, but it would be helpful if you Spacer parts that are wider than 10 are considered wider spacer parts. This bearing will not function if the outer diameter is less than 2mm.

Selected User Reviews For Zealous Bearings for Skateboards and Longboards (Steel)
Even though I had brought an extra pair of sunglasses, I didn't need them - The new ones were waiting waiting for me when I got home, so I changed them whenever I got home to get ready for Uruguay and South America. Even though I rode through massive puddles as well as crap and gunk every day, I only noticed one wheel was stuck a bit slower when I returned, and I had already been riding that bearing for about a year. My first set still worked the day after I rode in Arlington, Washington, in the rain and submerged my entire set up doing a half marathon, but that has been it for the last six or so years since I started riding these bearings as far as problems go which is awesome. The user is also relieved of the necessity of using spacers and rings This is crucial for sliding down hills and all the sideways forces, so that adjustments can be managed much more easily along the roadside, and the bearings themselves are much more durable.
Out of the box, this set rolls VERY quiet - it does not squeak or click. A great thing about this game is that it has no sound! It does not roll super fast, but it does roll very steadily, which is what matters most A long life. In my opinion, the oils used in the thick grease are put in large quantities to increase roll speed, repel water, and help conduct heat more efficiently. Integrated spacers and the extended washers make swapping wheels a breeze when you have a wet/dry setup or grip/slide setup. I love these bearings, and I'll buy them.
Once you've been using it for a month, it's as smooth as butter. Due to their small diameter, these bearings have fewer revolutions per mile than standard Longboard wheels. For example, they're used in an Onda board (7" wheels). Compared to reds or even many stock bearings, which have a ton of resistance when new, these bearings have a ton of resistance when they are brand new. During the colder months, they appeared to be particularly stiff. Before I noticed that my cruising distances were getting longer, it took me a few weeks of casual riding. The smooth glide of these shoes is only possible after they have been fully broken in. I have noticed less resistance with these bearings than my previous ones, and passing through a few puddles on occasion has not affected their performance.
Why do you need new skateboard bearings for your board? It's impossible for your board to roll well, as it We used to be big fans of space balls, but my friend found something that is basically the same thing at a cheaper price and performs phenomenally. I had no idea there was such a thing as a built-in spacer but it does so much more than I had imagined. Because bearings must perform under load, it isn't a reliable or accurate way to determine whether they're good or not when they don't "free spin" out of the packaging. It takes a little bit of time to get adjusted but after that everything is smooth sailing. Buying these and trying them out will be a great experience. Your life will be changed by them.
It comes highly recommended by other websites dedicated to longboards. It's been awhile since I've changed bearings, so these are all $75-150. No maintenance is required for these and they are as good or better than the originals. Buy another pair of under $15 bucks when you trash your current ones after 6 months to a year. It would have been great if I had figured out this $500 dollars plus earlier! As a reminder You won't be fooled by rookie spin tests. These bearings take a week to break in and are sealed on both sides so that dirt cannot enter as well as special self-healing lube. With this app, you will never need to clean bearings again. This is truly useful if you own more than seven boards, as I do. If you want your downhill or freeride experience to be the best, use Rey Lite Trucks RKP and you will love your longboard experience beyond words. You can slide on Surf Rodz trucks or just cruise on them - they're great for both! When riding downhill over 25 mph, sharpen the turns, but only if you are at the back of the group and experienced. Never let anyone hurt you or your brain. Wear a helmet for safety. The most common time for a fall to occur is at low speeds and when you are mucking around. You imagine that you are standing on solid concrete with your head tipped back and that you fall back head first, as if you were a tree. This can be done off of a skateboard or a longboard when you hit a rock or crack slowly. Become permanently stupid if you don't protect your head! Professional riders and riders who are serious do it. Feel free to put stickers on your helmet if you don't find it cool to wear it. It is a terrible thing to waste a mind. Set a good example for younger skaters and your buddies. Enjoy life, and read Silerfish reviews to find out what other longboarders think of products.
It does not need a spacer, speed ring, or other fastener. It's easy to swap wheels with this one, and they can roll for days! These are very useful at the moment while I'm deployed in Afghanistan, where it's extremely dusty. I just can't seem to stop these from It is incredible how close the tolerances on the shields are, and the lube used out of the box is also In this part of the world, I had to clean my redfish every two weeks. Since the wheels have rolled effortlessly for 2 months in stressful conditions without requiring cleaning, we are still using them. Take advantage of the cheap price, but don't let the low price fool you!.
These are by far the best bearings for sliding and carving hard surfaces. In comparison to Swiss big sixes, these bones offer comparable performance In the meantime, the lateral force stability of this design is better than any other spacer, washer, or bearing rig (IMHO).
