Default ABEC 7 bearings in skateboards?

Speed and load will be low in an anenomometer, so precision really
isn't necessary. I'll probably use small motor bearings or router
guide bearings.


I would use Teflon or jewel bearings. I think that any ball bearings
would have more low speed drag especially if they have seals. A
stainless shaft and either a glass jewel or teflon would not need
protection from the elements.
