My YoYo Jam Vexed’s bearing seat use to hold the bearing in and you had to use pliers to get it out. Now it just sits loose in the bearing seat and comes out very easily. Is there any way to fix that?

that’s not necessarily bad, and if I’m correct it was broken when you had to use pliers…

My Vexed, the thin bearing fell out when I took it apart to swap out for the included SPEED bearing. The Speed Bearing also is not having a death grip on the bearing seat.
Come to think of it, all my YYJ’s are loose to the bearing seat, yet they all play just fine.

It shouldn’t effect how your yoyo plays. Lots of YYJ and YYF throws hold bearings like that. There’s other company’s that doesn’t hold the bearing like that, I’ve never owned a CLYW or OD throw that holds a bearing in tight. But, it could be my bearings, either way it isn’t a bad thing.

That’s nothing to worry about. Just be ready to catch it when you take the yoyo apart.
