Hey ! I am thinking about changing all of my bearing for i don’t know what still because my ct seem weird , one second they play dry the next throw they are responsive and i hate that so what i would like about a bearing in order of importance :
-Reliability: can i trust that bearing or he will try to kill my fingers ?
-Price/bulk: is it possible to buy it in bulk/cheap price ?
-Dry playing: can it be played dry without breaking because that would be cool ?
-Concaved: does it have a centering groove ?
-Noisy: as weird ad it can sound , i like my bearing when they are noisy because i can know how much spin there is left
Just buy a cheap concave bearing, they’re all so similar. Personally i hate the centering grooves, but other than that get whatever you have access to that’s the least expensive.
I did try cleaning mine to give it a fresh start, i used mineral spirits, took off the side caps, for if its a ct it might not have any, then soaked it for like 10 min, dried it off, used it dry, works wonderfully, but ive always had great success with DIE E yo concave bearings
