Wait, should I not clean with extremely dangerous chemicals because it may damage my bearings or because they maybe harmful to breathe in? I’ve clean with all those harmful chemical shown especially alcohol and as long as you dry them quick afterwards it’s fine. I guess just don’t be an idiot, practice safety, and stuff like that.👍

You missed the part where you put on trucks and go skate...

Dudes comes across as a shill. I know it’s not intentional, Was doing well, until he went all ‘murica in the video then the comments. Best thing you can do is buy a reputable brand/style Whether it Swiss, ceramic or good ‘ol USA made, Then maintain them properly, like you should anything. Problem is these days, people want to buy something expensive, fit it and forget. Newsflash, the better your bearings and better the spec/tolerance, The more maintenance it needs to not fall out that window. I know things have come a long way since this video was created, But contact cleaner Compressed air And Lithium grease are your friend.

Ik im a bit late but still cant get outer bearing off of my wheel im not useing standard wheels im useing some offroad wheels

I bought this rubber and it's not great. Just buy new griptape. $10 lost forever.

Good Video (Y) Thanks!

This worked for me! Had a very rusted screw that didn't budge at all. I didn't have the 2 bits that he said you needed, but what I did do was use similar size bits and kept increasing the sizes little by little. After the 3rd bit the screw fell out!

1:47 as other people stated BS !! A razor blade and a little screwdriver does the job. And they go back in too.

I used this video maybe 7 years ago when I had rollerblade bearings to clean. Now I'm using it again to clean my skateboard bearings. Thank you for making a timeless video with advice that's still good even after TikTok and CZcams shorts shows me bearing cleaning videos that use bad advice.

I had a hard rusted one in tried everything before finally caving and googling it. Took longer to watch the video than to get it out.

You’re not a rat

This is an amazing video with a lot of detail. In my country we don’t have anything called “citrus cleaner” do you know anything that would be the same or an alternative?

It’s it’s it’s ….. GRIPPY.

So bearing spacers should be added to wheels not bearings

I miss this dude

thank you, ive been trying to figure out how they help and this shows how they actually work in detail

Excelente video y los dibujos de las explicaciones,lo veo en el año 2024 y no había visto algo asi antes.saludos desde Montevideo Uruguay 🇺🇾

You mentioned materials used to make the barring's. I think that is a big deal. Good mettle can make a big difference in consistency quality strength surface deformations. Obviously machining can make a big difference as well.

how long does the fix lasts?

"You don't know what a cassette tape case is?" Damn ... in 2024, this hit harder ... Anyway, nice video! Very helpfull

The spacer sizes being slightly different doesnt matter. Not one bit. And never tighted your axle nut down like he mentioned.. leave some play.

best cleaning video 👍

What is better? metal crown that holds ball bearings or that white rubber thing inside a bearing

this is so useful!! i was trying to figure out what size bearing spacers to get for my quad skates and i didn’t really understand what the difference in size meant. i’m still not quite sure because there isn’t a lot of info that i can find right now, but this has helped a lot.

Awesome so much easier than I thought this was gonna be with your video!

I love this video! Reminds me of vids from early 2000's :D Also very informative even today.

Okay, so which bearing SHOULD I get for my quad skates ? I dance AND skate really fast too. I skate the skatepark bowls too. IF money is not a concern, which bearings should I get for speed and longevity?

Just ride the dang thing. Don’t over think, buy what you think is right for you. It’s not gonna make a difference with those measurements if its off by a milimetre, if you skate well and it makes you happy you don’t need that scientific halla ballu.

Great vid!

I can't stop rewatching all these videos over the years

CAP!! bearings are better without the grease. Take your bearings out of your wheels remove the shields and leave them in a cup of Windex for a couple hours. Shake the bottle up to help get the grease off. Leave the shields off of your bearings, the dirt will go through one end and out the other, you’ll never have dirty bearings and the grease is unnecessary because it only helps if you’re going a certain speed and even pro skaters never go fast enough to require bearing grease

Thanks man. This technique just helped me rite now. Peace ✌️

I found independent abec 7s in high school and they would out preform 80% of bearings when it came to consistency, speed and durability. I will still die on this hill but I have not used them recently as I have been trying to expand my horizons but I still have a usable set from around 2015. Thank you guys for this video though I am definitely going to try Oust.

Somebody call Roger 😅

come bak vro

Heard this guy got his time machine fixed and returned to the 90's to change the world for the better with his knowledge of future events. We miss you, king.

thanks for the informations and video!

I purchased some Yellow Jacket. Bearings and those are really good hybrids. Titanium and ceramic, they skate fast

bro please come back to youtube!! GOAT

yeah tks

Hi, great video! What electronic oil would you recommend?

I’m gonna kms

Is there different tape for both of em

all i do is wax my pivot cups and i’m good to go

John Conner "are you here to kill me" Terminator "no , you must skate"

Why I dont buy cheap shit but atleast mid great at best. This is also why Ben Degros says he doesn't recommend spacers unless by the same brands.

Its wierd alot of people say dont use acetone and I prob never would but ive seen Bones rider themselves use it so very misleading.

So does that mean you should lube your Bronson Raws. Those go for days but honestly fastest bearings ive tried so far are still Bones but also used them the most so hard to judge. Im wondering cus I know Jamie FOy has a hack where he takes G3 and cleans with windex to remove the oils to make them like budget Raws.

Wait does this work with roller skates bushings???

Soo i kinda started a bearing business. Almost started. And i wanted to do swiss bones parts like theyre retainers to hold the balls in my bearings. When i ordered like 6 cages /retainers. They came in 2 months witch is ridiculous i live in a city. And they say made in china on the fucking bag. Soo bones swiss is made in china 100 percent. I ordered from theyre legit website 60 besring cages and they came from china. Soo just saying everythings made in china at this point. Except my bearings. Theyre ordered from china sanded down shined up. Cleaned. And swapped cages here in Canada soo ... Just saying im pretty legit lol. But theres no way to not order anything from china at this point with everything. Like for example you can order blanks for starting your decks out without you own press but the paint / silk screen set you get will be from china. Theres no way to avoid it at this point
