that depends if you're getting a complete(deck, trucks, wheels, and bearings) or if you're not, then bearings are separate. Although if some bearings cost more than a deck, they can last very long if you clean them at least once or twice every month. The best bearings belong to bones swiss! good luck

What size bearings do you need if you have 52MM wheels?
All skateboard bearings will fit ANY sized skateboard wheel because the bearing hole is designed to be the same in all wheels.
Do you need bearings on a skateboard?
Yes. The bearings are what allows the wheels to mount up firmly but yet spin freely on the axles/trucks.
What technology is needed to make a skateboard?
you need a skate tool or you can take it to the local skate shop and borrow one off them you need nuts and bolts trucks bearings wheels and a deck
How do you you make your wheels for skateboards faster?
Before buying skateboard bearing you need to have knowledge regarding whether it has good load capacity or not. Along with that checking the lubrication and ensure easy maintenance is important. The skateboard working and speed will tell whether bearings are good or not. ionicflux. com/collections/bearing-lubes
Why do do you need bearings in a bmx?
To make the wheels spin easily.
What type of wheels can you put on a penny board?
Longboard wheels have a small hub, or core, inside it. Skateboard wheels also have this. This allows you to put bearings inside of both of them and can interchange what trucks you put on it. Generally, longboard wheels fit on normal skateboard trucks but a problem you will encounter is wheelbite. You may need to sand the board for wheel wells or put big risers on your board. Another solution is buying harder bushings for less turn and lean.
Are the Speed Demon Bearings Clear Shields ABEC-7 8 Pk just bearings or are they actual wheels im new to skate boarding and i need to know if they are real wheels or are they just bearings you just?
bearings go inside the skateboarding wheel
If you bought roller hockey skates with mini bearings can those same skates be switched to standard bearings?
Yes, any skate can take either bearing but you need to have the right type of wheel and spacer per bearing. ie, if you have mini bearings you need mini hub wheels and spacers that fit the mini bearings. If you have standard bearings you need standard hub wheels and spacers that fit the standard bearings.
How do you maintain your skateboard?
try to keep it clean and if you need to buy new bearings, board, deck, trucks and learn new tricks and have fun
When you push a skateboard on a flat surface why does it stop after a while?
Several reasons. The main reason being the friction created by the gravitation force acting on the board and pushing the wheels to the ground. Also the air resistance as the board is moving forward. Thirdly, the surface in which the skateboard is riding on would need to be perfectly smooth, theoretically on air, to create no resistance. And finally the rotation of the wheels against the bearings creates friction which even though they are greased to reduce the friction can not completely eliminate this factor.
Why does my Car wobbles at 55 mph?
Wheels need balancing, alignment could be off, wheel bearings, bent rim. Probably just needs wheels balanced.
What are all the parts of a skateboard?
Skateboard PartsDeck: The deck is the main part of the board. It's what you stand on.Trucks: Consist of a hangar, a base-plate, a kingpin bolt/nut, two truck bushings, a pivot cup, a riser pad* (optional) and a set of four nuts and bolts that are used to fasten the truck to the skateboard. The base-plate is the rectangle shaped portion of the truck that is fastened to the skateboard. This is also where the kingpin is located. On the circular portion of the bottom of the base-plate is where one of the truck bushings is located. The wide portion of the truck, known as the hangar, is where the wheels are fastened. The second truck bushing is located on the circular portion of the hangar, similar to the base-plate, and sits right above the other bushing. The pivot cup is the small black circular hole that is located on the base-plate. This is another important, but often over-looked part of the truck. The tip of the bottom of the hangar fits into the pivot cup, and if the pivot cup is damaged, the truck may not turn at all, which may be dangerous. Note, there are two trucks per skateboard.Bushings: Bushings are what allows the truck to turn. They do wear over time, so check them regularly, just like any other part of the skateboard. If the bushings are damaged, they can start to split apart. This can cause the board to turn improperly, or jeer to the left or right when attempting to ride straight.Wheels: Wheels are probably replaced more than any other part of a skateboard. They can wear down, crack, and even "cone" after prolonged usage, especially if you like to slide your skateboard. There are four wheels to each truck, and each wheel must have two bearings. Wheels may also have two wheel-washers, and one bearing-spacer** (optional, but recommended).Bearings: Bearings, like wheels, are often replaced quite quickly, due to wear. Bearings are the small, circle-shaped, metal pieces that go into your wheels. They are fairly cheap and are important for going fast on your board, and for going for a long time. If your bearings are too worn-down, your ride will not be as enjoyable. To test your bearings, simply pop them out of your wheel, and spin them on your truck hangar or by holding one carefully with the tips of your fingers. If the bearing chunks, or makes a cracking noise and does not spin well, then it is recommended you replace said bearing.*Riser pads lift the truck from the board, and depending on the material, can cushion the ride. Riser pads can also prevent the skateboard from getting wheel-bite, if the risers are large enough. Wheel-bite occurs when the wheels are too big for a skateboard, and they "bite" the bottom of the board when the rider attempts to turn. Certain skateboards are crafted with wheel-wells, which allow the wheels to be larger, due to a cut-out in the wheel-area of a skateboard.**Wheel-washers and bearing-spacers are not exactly needed, but they reduce tension on the bearing, which prolongs the life of the bearings, and allows you to go faster and longer when skating.
