ZEALOUS Classic – Built In Bearings for Longboard, Skate and Cruiser
The ZEALOUS Classic Bearings are high-performance bearings designed for longboard, skateboard and cruiser, with a particularly strong reputation in downhill and freeride.
Their biggest advantage is the BUILT IN design, which integrates the 0.5 cm. bearing spacer and 0.4045" speedring directly into the bearing. No separate spacers or washers are required, making wheel installation faster, cleaner and more precise.
Although they are highly popular among downhill riders, their smooth and efficient performance makes them an excellent choice for cruising, carving, freeride and everyday skateboarding.

BUILT IN: INTEGRATED SPACER AND SPEEDRING
This is what makes the ZEALOUS Classic different.
Each bearing has a built-in 0.4045" spacer and 0.5 mm speedring, eliminating the need for separate components between the bearings and the wheel.
The result is a simpler and more convenient setup, with fewer loose parts to deal with when changing wheels.
For riders who regularly swap wheels or maintain several longboard setups, the Built In system is particularly practical.
Install the bearings, fit the wheel, tighten the axle and ride.

MADE FOR LONGBOARD DOWNHILL
The ZEALOUS Classic has become a popular choice in longboard downhill and freeride, where consistent rolling, precision and reliability are essential.
The bearings feature precision 8 mm axle holes, designed for an accurate fit on standard 8 mm skateboard and longboard axles.
But you don't need to be racing downhill to benefit from them.
They work equally well for longboard cruising, carving, freeride, cruiser skateboards and regular skateboarding, making them a versatile upgrade for a wide range of setups.

CUSTOM NANOCERAMIC GREASE
ZEALOUS lubricates the Classic bearings with its Custom Nanoceramic Grease, developed to reduce friction and heat inside the bearing.
According to Zealous, the nanoceramic compound fills microscopic surface imperfections, helping to reduce friction as the bearing is used. The manufacturer also states a very low coefficient of friction, extremely low water washout and greatly reduced internal corrosion.
This gives the Classic a smooth, efficient rolling feel designed for demanding use.
----
GREEN RUBBER SEALS
The green rubber seals help keep dirt and debris outside the bearing, protecting the internal components during use.
Combined with the Built In construction and specialized lubricant, the result is a bearing designed to deliver consistent performance while keeping maintenance straightforward.
