Okay i got a BVM Ogopogo a week ago and was so excited, it is so loud and when you take the yoyo apart and flick it arond the seat it wont even spin. This makes it responsive. This happens everytime i get a new yoyo and i feel that there is no way out of it. My bearings will never stop doing this. I havent done anything to it, in fact ive kept it perfectly mint. What am I doing wrong?
Maybe it’s hair or lint? I would take out your bearing and clean it with something like mineral spirits. Also, did you break in the bearing? It may be the reason you always have a responsive yoyo when you first get it.
Dont worry,CLYW always load their bearings with lube,I believe thick lube.There are two choices,one is keep playing until it is broken in,or two ,clean the bearing.
Yeah it took my FHZ bearing some time too break in (Duncan bearings are crappy by the way) and still is super responsive. Just try to clean it and make sure to blow out all the mineral spirits with compressed air before you put lube in it. My DM and Axiom bearings played really well when i got them so it might just be the company
AFAIK, all CLYW yoyos, excluding the very latest colorway of peaks (brown with red splash, gold nugget), come with cleaned bearings and are unresponsive out of the box.
Only the new colorway of peaks, brown w/ red and gold nugget, come with lightly lubricated bearings and require a short break in period.
When I received the chesterman peak, it had a cleaned bearing. When a friend of mine received a ogopogo bvm, it had a cleaned bearing.
