So yeah, I’ve had the 5Star for a while. (Its my brother’s actually)
The AIGR bearing has been acting weird letely.
Its not spinning to well, and its stuck in the bearing seat.
I can’t clean it since its stuck (Yes, I have tried pliers) and the lube does help a bit, but the bearing uses it up super fast.
Any thoughts?
remember, wiggle, not pull.

Put it in the freezer for about 20 minutes.
Take out, pliers, BAM.
That’s how it works
(Make sure not to leave it too long or else may damage it)

Wow…it worked!
turns out there was a shield between the bearing and the seat, so that’s what slowed it down, but the silicone wore out now.
Anyone know what pads these are, or just flowable silicone?

Oh, I didn’t know this was a .555 groove, I’ll put in chaz pads and silicone stickers. (Same setup as M1)

General-Yo Gen Pads.
Really? I thought they used One Drop Pads.
Were the pads clear, or orange?
