Frequently Asked Questions

There are many bearings in the Bones Bearing lineup, so we will assume you are referring to their most popular Bones Reds Bearings.

Dragon RACE Bearing would be closest to Reds. RACE Bearings come at the same price point, but also offer 2 removable Labyrinth seals for keeping gunk and dirt out of the bearing, thus reducing maintenance.

In comparison, Bones Reds come with just a single RS seal on the outside, which does not fully seal the inner race (hold them to the light and you’ll see a gap between the rubber shield and the inner race).

G3s are one of the most popular bearings on the market. Price-wise they set you back around $34 vs the $17 from Dragon ENDURE or RACE. All G3 bearings are 608 size with steel balls, but with Dragon bearings you get 2 rubber Labyrinth seals to keep dirt and debris out. G3s just have 2 RS rubber seals. As with the Bones Bearings (above), hold your G3’s to the light and you’ll see a nice ol gap between your rubber seal and the inner race, allowing dirt and debris inside your bearing. Dragon Bearings do not have this gap.

Bronson’s do come with spacers as standard (which can be added to any Dragon bearings on the product page)

Neither! These are designed from the ground up for skating. The ABEC scale is NOT designed for skateboard applications. Click here to learn more about why the ABEC system is worthless in skateboard bearing application

In order to make a bearing ‘Swiss’, it must be made in... you guessed it: Switzerland. Dragon Bearings are made in our partner factory in China. While performance is on par with these premium bearings, they are not ‘Swiss’. Try a set for yourself and send them back if you don’t love them.

Nope! All Dragon Bearings come pre-lubricated. You do not need to add more lubricants.

However, lubricant can be used if you are looking to clean and then re-lubricate your bearings. Check out our guide to cleaning and re-lubing bearings.
