Hey Guys recently have tried doing my own bearing seat on a design (Landon did the last one for me) and I was wondering if anybody could verify if it was right or not if I sent the file to them?

This is my attempt.

I just created this for the sake of the bearing seat.

It looks as though you’ve succeeded.

A picture means nothing. The measurements on the bearing seat are what matter. If they are to the right size of bearing specs it should be fine.

Any chance you could compare it to your Gambit CAD?

My gambit uses a different type of axle so it’s not the same I believe. From the eye that response groove looks a tad too thin.

Does the Gambit use a M5 axle?
