When I got my sb Hectic, it was absolutely dead smooth. I haven’t done anything to it except change the string and apply a little drop of thin lube once the bearing broke in. Now it has a significant vibe. Even after letting it grind on my thumb, making sure the string is not touching the sides, and all that good stuff, it still has a vibe. I’m not sure what could have happened unless this is a property of the bearing somehow. Any ideas on what happened and how to fix it? Thanks in advance. ---

Same thing happened to me, but I just broke in the bearing completely and it stopped. ---

OK, the problem has worsened significantly. The wobble, vibe, and responsiveness are extreme. I cleaned my bearing, thinking that some particles of debris or silicone got into it, but the problem is only worse. (yes, I thin lubed it) Do I need a new bearing? This is extremely frustrating. ---

If its nt the bearing problem, it is your throw. ---

Yes, as established in my original post. There is definitely something wrong with the bearing. It only spins for about 1 second on a flick. ---

If you’ve cleaned it properly and you’re still having issues, I’d say contact Ben from YYF about it. I’m sure they’ll replace it. ---

Change the bearing. That will fix it. If you have tapmered with the bearing at all then the warranty will do you no good. Bearings can cause some serious vibe/wobble. ---

Weird, I can’t imagine what I could have done to it. It’s never been dropped or anything like that. [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/hectic-has-vibe-now/4659.md?page=2)
