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

All skateboard bearings will fit ANY sized skateboard wheel because the bearing hole is designed to be the same in all wheels.
Yes. The bearings are what allows the wheels to mount up firmly but yet spin freely on the axles/trucks.
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
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
To make the wheels spin easily.
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.
bearings go inside the skateboarding wheel
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.
To determine if bike bearings are bad, you can listen for any unusual noises such as grinding or clicking while spinning the wheels. You can also check for any roughness or resistance when turning the wheels by hand. Additionally, if there is any play or wobbling in the wheels, it may indicate that the bearings are worn out and need to be replaced.
try to keep it clean and if you need to buy new bearings, board, deck, trucks and learn new tricks and have fun
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.
Wheels need balancing, alignment could be off, wheel bearings, bent rim. Probably just needs wheels balanced.
