when you feel like you need to lube it or when it gets loud and sometimes bearing take a few days to break in 10 balls take a few weeks ---

Well, for YYJ bearings maybe 2-3 days and you can clean a bearing when ever you want or when soemthing is inside the bearing and slowing it down. ---

I suggest you break in the bearing first, and keep it lightly lubed for a while. But if you feel like you don’t like how it plays, then you should try to clean it. :wink:
