Opting for mini bearings offers two notable advantages:
1. It significantly reduces weight, with a 608 bearing weighing 12 grams, while a mini bearing only weighs 4 grams, with an adapter adding just 1 gram.
2. Mini bearings provide quicker spool-up compared to standard 608 bearings.
For substantial weight savings of up to 176 grams (6.2 oz) on your quad roller skates, consider pairing Bont Mini bearings with these adapters. They are ideal for roller derby, providing rapid acceleration, and they also lighten your rink or outdoor skates. However, it's important to note that mini bearings are not suitable for jumping. These aluminum adapters have undergone rigorous testing by Bont's professional roller skating and roller derby teams, ensuring their strength and superior performance. Don't hesitate to purchase a set and experience the benefits firsthand!
