Default ABEC 7 bearings in skateboards?

Are those skateboard bearings really made to ABEC 7? Or is that some
clever marketing ploy?

There is a company selling skateboard bearings that is named "ABEC-7"
and it has nothing to do with their quality. You are correct that a
true ABEC -7 bearing meets extremely tight tolerances.


Maybe I should open a company called "18k Gold" and start making crap
jewelry...
