You upgraded the bearing on a budget plastic? Why?

About the moving axle, yyf uses a similar axle system to Duncan in some of their plastics, and the Caps don’t hold it completely in place.

Why not? “Upgraded” doesn’t mean expensive. Center trac can help a lot.

Cool review man. I would recommend outlining the points you want to hit beforehand, help you to stay on point, you rambled a bit.

10 dollar bearing on a 15 dollar yoyo seems kinda silly to me.

Still cheaper than putting a $10 bearing in a $35 yoyo.

Just don’t know why you care. xD

I don’t care, I’m just wondering what the though process was. Its not like yyf ships with low quality bearings.

the thought process was: “Hey, I want my $15 yoyo to play better, why not get a better bearing!” and it’s not like he can never take the bearing out of the onestar and put it in a “non-budget” yoyo.

seems pretty simple to understand to me.

My favorite cheap replacement is the Buddha Whipple. Very good centering bearing for $5 (in the 4-pack, like $7 each alone).

They do, at least with my experiences with the flat SPEC bearings.

They always break after about a week or so.
