dont listen theyre so much better than reds fast smooth last alot longer dont have to clean often to keep performance break in quick just overall best bearings under $20 and better than most $30 bearings except rocknrons but overall really good better than reds

my reds were awesome, i had them for 6 months, never had any problems, they were so good, but i needed some lubrication for them, and i just got new ones. reds are good and so are fkd sawblades. lucky 3s, arents so great though.

reds are good, the feel to fkds is definetly different, because of having a metal crown instead of a nylon one. luckys just die really quickly.

you can get a removeable shield with fkd or steel shield if you dont clean your bearings often i get steel shields but the feel is different but i find fkds smoother prolly cause theyre abec 7 instead of abec 5 like reds although abec doesnt have anything to do with speed the higher the abec the smoother the bearing will be

dude i hate luckys, i used to skate them when i was just starting, then i kept skating them until i got my reds i had for like 6 months, then i got some lucky 3s. the shields came out on the second day on like 6 of them, then they started breaking, and i had them for like 2-3 weeks total. and that is probably the last time i will ever get luckys. fuck lucky.
