Oxygene (and Bist) and ILYY (with the only exceptions of the Saint-eel (@_void) which has a bearing D and recent models I think… after 2016, all C-size) have always used bearings of size L (which are nothing more than bearings of size C but with slightly varied dimensions because metric and not in inches).  
Other models available both with C bearings and with D bearings … VsNYYC SkyWalker (opss! sorry @888alltheway only now Iseen your post!)

P.S. if I remember correctly, there are also very few specimens (from 3 to 6 pieces maximum) of Bear vs man with bearing D (maybe they were the Team edition ??? bho many years have passed now!)

> The best D bearing yoyos I’ve thrown are made by YoyoRecreation. The YYR 6 and the YYR Fragment are both amazing - the Fragment in particular has a feel that I’ve yet to see replicated by any other yoyo. It’s a real treat.

Came here to mention the Fragment also.

And then there’s the YYR Uragment (basically another Fragment version), and the YYR CLASHcube, all D-bearing too.

Aside from the Saint Eel we made D-size bearing runs for the Rocket and the Enigma.

Thanks for the clarification I did not remember.  
Many Bist models also had D-sizes

Thanks fam. List coming along nicely. Can anyone point out any that are currently “in production”. To clarify that I mean something like the Kun (out of stock at present, but restocking eventually), and NOT the Euphonious (which may still have a couple available, but will not be run again).

The production version of the hspin Gorylla also came with a D-size bearing.

I had the one of these: [American Yo-Yo Association | YoYo Wiki | Fandom](https://yoyo.fandom.com/wiki/American_Yo-Yo_Association?file=Ayyapyro.jpg)

The only thing I liked about it, was that I sold it for $400!!! I’d love to try something else with a D bearing.

So far I only have the Euphonious. Gonna grab a Kun if @AndreBoulay and @YoYoExpertGarrett ever get their act together and post the restock.

The Kun is definitely worth having.

I think the Kun might win out in a poll, but I play with the flea much more.

Carbon steel? I remember the model well but I remembered this thing.  
Very particular choice, given the tendency it has to oxidize.  
Actually, already from new it had a quite dark color … Very interesting!

It was coated in manganese phosphate (gunmetal).

@adamantiumpops there was only one run - maybe 150 pieces. I’ve seen some over the years. Sold mine a few years ago. Hard to find now over a decade after release.
