I just want to point out that just because it came with a Konkave bearing doesn’t mean you can only use them. You can still use flat bearings. ---

What’s wrong with the one you have? And another thing, I think MYY bearings are N sized, I might be wrong. And the new bearing doesn’t have to be concave. It can be Flat. Just a few things to think about before you buy a new bearing. I think I would go for a Dif-e-o. ---

I just read on their website that there size C large. ---

> [@petersonmcgraw](#): > > Just buy another magic yoyo for the price of any of those bearings. I was about to say that… I know right, just get another yoyo! Unless your in an area where the MYY are retail price. If you look on EBay you can find one lowest 10-12. ---
