Bronson Speed Co. 6-Ball Raw Skateboard Bearings (Set Of 8)
Designed for skaters who demand peak performance, RAW Bearings from Bronson Speed Co. deliver an ultra-fast, ultra-smooth ride built to handle the toughest sessions.
Bronson Six Ball Raw Bearings Feature:
- Increased Durability: Larger balls handle impacts and stress better, making them more resistant to cracking or deformation
- Less Friction: With fewer contact points, there's slightly less friction, which can improve roll speed.
- Better for High-Speed Applications: These are often preferred for downhill skating or high-speed cruising.
