Edit: After having the these same set of Bones SS 6Balls on my downhill board for over a year..they are still the best bearings I have ever ridden and especially for their price here on Amazon. (They retail for around $60) As this is an update after long periods and many many use, I keep these clean with the Bones bearing cleaning kit (that bottle kit) and use speed cream every time I clean them. I clean them about once every 3 months or if they are particularly covered in grime after rougher surfaces. After over a year of frequent use I still overtake people not using these bearings in many many races, and glide much much longer during prolonged kicking over flat surfaces. If you're kicking around the idea of buying these at all...just buy them. They are excellent quality and sustain excellent performance over time.
Negatives: You must tighten the wheel nuts all the way down, not super tight, but all the way. My right front wheel came off during break in. These bearings for some reason cause the nut to loosen. Not sure why. There should be a torque specification for these to prevent confusion. the 8 pack is only enough for one skate. buy 2 packs, which they don't warn you about. break in time is not a sure thing, so don't listen to the product description. very misleading. just start skating and you'll know when they're broken in. Be careful with these bearings, once broken in they are super fast and you can hurt yourself. Bearings are about 1 mm off the quad axle, which seems odd, but see comments below.
Positives: The bearing fits loose, but actually leads to precision handling especially with figure 8s, Smooth gliding bearings at all speeds. Easy to clean, and you don't need spacers if your wheel has a machined groove. If you are a speed skater, you will never lose with these bearings. Trust me on that. A lot of fun for a great price.
-Len Martin, El Paso TX
Purchased 24 (3x8)
Quality - great material as good as Bones usually and better than an Twincam ILQ9 PRO (6 ball)
Acceleration - noticable speed difference, however my girl's Bones Swiss can keep it's speed longer.
Dependence - weather, humidity, temperature. Seems that it rolls smooter on hotter days. This definitely sucks in Dublin.
Cleaning - easy technical assembly. Bones should be more thorough about advising cleaning products for best performance. Using methylane shouldn't have been a problem but in fact cleaning after 3 times each before used for less than consecutive 100 km the bearings started to spot-rust. Used Bones Bearings cleaning unit... tried to do it text book style, still rusting, big mistery. Very disappointing.
Support - Bones must think that the fine printed 'manual' answers everything - guessing that they provide the same one with every bearing and on the website - but they should spend time and energy on their overseas customers and their possibilities. (we don't necessary have the same engine cleaner that they use in the US) Of course no answer to e-mail query.
Replacement parts - too expensive. You'd better off buying a new set of bearings better yet a new set of skates equipped with bones bearings.
Packaging - very disappointing. Box - more like A5 cardboard envelope was damaged and no bubblewrap were used. 1 set of bearings were slightly sticking out on the side. I wonder why is it not a standard that fine equipments are protected if not over... not to mention spending over $180 including import fees and very expensive shipping and packaging charges.
Regulations - Ordering to the EU only offers a bit of saving - even though product price much cheaper, however totalling the product, import fees, shipping and handling and government tax from our side adds up and leaves you with a 10'er, but since locally nothing is available didn't have any other choice. (Don't understand why quality bearings aren't promoted here or why are these priced so high compared to the US.)
Shipping - on time. dispatched 2 days after placing the order. Delivered as promised between 3-5 days. Charged government tax unexpectedly - caused a bit of awkward delay in receiving but DHL returned on the same day and happily delivered upon payment. 21% DON'T FORGET!!! to have cash ready.
Overall product is quaility.
Will stay with bones in fact will update to ceramics.
All the best,

Reso impossibile ovviamente e nessuna assistenza da parte della Bones in Italia. Brutta esperienza.
