Anyone tried putting a bearing blank in a Sherpa?

I have a Luftverk bearing blank in my Sherpa. It works okay.

The thing is, fixed axles typically have a very small radius, like a looper bearing. C sized bearings (or blanks) just don’t yield that authentic fixie feel, IMO.

Agreed. Blanks are “Ok”. The luftverk works better in this than the others I tried though( butterfly al, metal drifter xl)

Really enjoying @YoYoExpertGarrett’s though!! The wood blanks are definitely superior in play.

Haven’t thrown enough plastic this summer, might as well keep it vintage, legendary Duncan Wheels, this one weights in at 60g from the mid nineties.

Gonna be Makin’ da Zines today! I’ve had a hard time wrapping my head around this repeater and I finally saw a detail I overlooked.:wink:

I know it’s not complicated, sometimes it’s just me overcomplicating it.

Thanks to @edhaponik for his tutorial on YYE. I know it’s old but it’s still doing work.

Can’t go all summer without playing a Butterfly. Keeping it vintage plastic with this USA made mid-nineties Duncan Butterfly in translucent green lace with some Duncan white bulk poly weighing in at 51grams. @drewtetz, one of the all time masters of the Butterfly, checkout his Mystics video, the trick starts with a Double or Nothing stall.
