Hi everyone, I recently came across a site that sold industrial ball-bearings. There was a whole section for yoyo ball bearings. Some are for yomega, some are for duncans, some are for yyjs, etc. Most of them are in 10 packs, but I found a 1-paack that supposedly is a size C bearing (.250 x .500 x .187) that fits yyjs and the like. The link to that: [http://www.vxb.com/page/bearings/PROD/YoYo/R188ZZ-1](http://www.vxb.com/page/bearings/PROD/YoYo/R188ZZ-1) There is also some yomega ball bearings (Can fit my Maverick) that supposedly spins 71,000 RPM. Is that good? (It sounds incredible!) [http://www.vxb.com/page/bearings/PROD/YoYo/Kit179](http://www.vxb.com/page/bearings/PROD/YoYo/Kit179) Have any of you guys tried these bearings? They seem O.K., but I’d like to see your opinions. ---

I’m sure they’re nothing special, just different. That 71,000 rpm is what it can handle before it burns/breaks apart, not that it will automatically spin that fast. ---

There are a lot of yoyo companies that buy from VBX. They’ve been around for a while. Good find though. ---

Okay 🙂 I might get a bearing (or 10) there. Do you have any idea how the 100% ceramic bearings are? ---

Not worth the money at all! Actually they are terrible in yoyo’s IMO. I just get stainless bearings. That’s it. ---

Thanks for the help! :wink: I’ll probably get some replacement bearings for my yoyos ;D That seems like the only place where I can get bearings for my maverick. (It’s slightly smaller than size C bearings) 😃 ---
