Power Bearings Red

Power Bearings Red is the entry into the Power Bearings range and the best value for money set we stock. It is honest precision steel, built to give you a genuine racing bearing without a racing budget, and it is where most new racers should start.

Why skaters choose Red

Red is precision crafted for the demands of skating, with a smooth, seamless glide that holds up to hard, repeated efforts. If you are moving up from the bearings that came fitted in your first skates, the jump in roll is immediately obvious. It is durable enough to take intense skating and priced so that a full set does not break the bank.

Fit and setup

These are standard 608 bearings, which fit the majority of inline speed skate wheels. A standard pair of four wheel inline skates needs sixteen bearings, so check how many are included on this page before ordering. Keep them clean and lightly oiled with a skate oil such as Speedslick Pro.
