Regardless of how minuscule the increase in performance is, I think it would be good for the community to know, a finite answer to the questions SO MANY ask. Wouldn’t it be weird if Flat bearings that come prelubed were more efficient than completely dry bearings?

I have air and that is all that is needed to completely clean a bearing. The more you clean it in a fresh solvent, the more junk you get out and with blasting it with compressed air asures you are getting more out than just the normal cleaning. So sonic blah blah blah is what I say. 😃

Thank for clearing that up. I had actually been really confused about that for a while.
