Prometheus Bearings
Best high performance upgrade for dedicated long distance skaters.
These high-precision bearings are the gold standard for smoothing out your gearbox's internal friction. Their ultra-slim profile makes installation and shimming significantly less of a headache, though you'll need to be comfortable with the delicate, hands-on nature of custom internal builds to truly appreciate the performance gains.
