Cool, it appears they’re similar to the Sure-Grip Fame but more widely available(and importantly available in hot pink). Amazed that you can get a full set of big soft for £20 but the price skyrockets for anything harder. Bridgend cycles had a good range much cheaper than the boutique hipster skate shops and from the looks of it they’re a family business. She got the Medallions for £45 posted for a full set of 8.
Are Bones Red or Big Balls the bearing of choice?
I used to fluctuate between branded and el-cheapo on my skateboard but they took an absolute kicking and I was a poor teenager. I had some knock-off ceramics once which were fast as hell but rattled like an old trolley.
