wats the difference between abec 7 and abec 3 bearings?
abec 7 is a smoother ride with better caps to protect ur bearings and makes it go faster....however abec 5s are about as good as 7 and are cheaper...BUT get the 15 $ bones reds theyre great and are very cheap...might last a little shorter but are a lot cheaper than abec 7s or 5s
dude dont listen to these guys abec doesn't depends on the size of the number. all abec run the same. most skateboard bearings are abec 5 so i would stick with reds if your price range is low or swiss / ceramics(bones) if you have a higher budget.
abec 7 you ride alot faster and smoother abec 3 is almost the same as abec 5 there kind of slower and there not as smooth.
8 bearings are in a long board and that means you only need to buy one new set of bearings if your also wondering (8 per pack)
the other answers are correct but the best is to get bone reds they dont have a specific abec but they are amazing!
