    I put the bearings in acetone before I put the lubricant on.

  2. WyoCole

    50% alcohol means the other 50% is water. water = rust

    @perfectmistakes666 I am certainly using abec7 they are okay and it’s stock board I recommend going to your friend who has been riding for awhile and ask them what set you should use and depending on what your using it for is the type of bearings you should use

  20. simpletrickz1

    finally someone calls those little things washers instead of speed rings.

  21. CrackrjacksSC

    Hey if anyone could help me? What type of lube or oil would you use to clean your bearings correctly?

  22. screamingmimi456

    could u use grease to lube the bearings

    i just got my longboard from nordboards and i dont think it was assembled right..

    only one wheel moves freely, and when i tried to loosen the bolt on the other wheels they still did not move as fast as the one wheel… the wheels that i loosened the bolt on got so loose that they even moved back and forth on the truck.

    does that mean that the wheels were not put on the truck itself correctly? how do i fix this?

    i want the wheels to move the same and fast like the origina

    just my point of view, but if im going for some serious downhill action, i will really get something that i know it won’t pop out in the middle of like some crazy blazing fast rolling… Long live bones swiss ceramic, i have so much peace in mind when i use them lmfao O_o, other bearing works fine, but i have never get so much peace in mind before :D, those are like industructable, you can not clean them for like a year and it will still roll like brand new reds or something, it wont die!!GOSK8!
