The world needs more bright orange yoyos! I still like it. I’ve got a bad feeling I’m going to have a tough time picking a color… or having to pick up more than one.

Looks great for zontal, right??

Anyone thinking of getting an RBC should order themselves a MR85/W3 Bearing (5x8x3mm). I believe they are used in model helicopters. It’s still plays nice and responsive and makes 1A tricks pretty easy. Here is a link to purchase one: Shielded Bearing 5x8x3 Miniature Ball Bearings: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

If you are wondering how to remove the bearing, get yourself a 5mm drill bit without a chamfered end. Here’s a link to one: Amazon.com: Utoolmart 2pcs 5mm Twist Drill with Titanium Coated High Speed Steel Bit HSS CO for Steel,Copper,Aluminum Alloy : Industrial & Scientific

Will it come with a 2.5? If you find a source for 3 or 4 widths, please post.

It will come with the 2.5mm wide bearing.

You can find the link to the 3mm wide one in my previous post. There’s probably not much point of having the 4mm wide bearing as it will be too wide for responsive and not quite wide enough for strictly 1A. Here’s a link to the 5mm one though which will bring the gap up to 4.8mm: MR85/W5, 5x8x5 mm, Radial Bearing MR85/W5C: Deep Groove Ball Bearings: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

YYE edition looking sick as always, im starting to develop a collection of YYE colorway throws. I want this throw in pure blood red, but that black and red looks sharp.

I honestly love that this yoyo has a non-standard bearing size so that it feels more like the fixie axle width. Seems like such a good design, can’t wait to see how it lives up. I got two fixie Bloodcells to compare with.

Ditto… you pretty much echoed my thoughts exactly.

For anyone interested in unresponsive play, André tipped me off on the practice of beefcaking - if you have two MR85 bearings that have been cleaned, you can install both of them side by side and get the RBC pretty unresponsive. Enough that I can land 1.5 hook, reverse-stole-ninja-vanish-rejection, etc.
