The 688 mini inline bearing adapter is made of aluminum. The bearing adapter fits over your so they can be used in a 608 wheel hub. You will need 1 adapter per bearing.
There are two advantages to using mini bearings.
- You create a much lighter setup as a 608 bearing weighs 12 grams compared to a mini bearing at 4 grams and an adapter at 1 gram
- Mini bearings spool up faster than regular 608 bearings
