swiss 6's are horrible compared to bones reds quality and performance.
Get the reds they rock.

So you say that some quality-made swiss bearings is worse than some chinese mass-produced bearings? Sure thing, dude...

i just got rid of my reds and got swiss 6, and ill tell you something, you obviously dont know anything if you really think that. the swiss 6 are awesome. and back to the thread. dont get abec bearings, get anything bones, but if ur low on cash, mini-logo makes a fairly decent 10 dollar set of skaterated bearings.

speed demons abec 7 are really cheap (I think they are the same as reds) and in my opinion they are better then reds (I've owned both)

first off, reds have 7 balls and have not been officaily abec rated(by bones)

2nd, the reason swiss 6 balls are better is because they have less bearings which means less friction

3rd, abec rating doesnt really mean jack as far as skating goes. the abec system was made for bearings used on small electric motors
