Hey friends, if you don’t know me, I’m a fixed-axle nerd and I run a lowkey handmade yo-yo accessory brand called _Bear & Fox Armoury_. I like to setup modern responsive yo-yos as fixies, I call them _Postmodern Fixedaxles_ :joy: - MR85 yoyos like the RBC play fantastic as fixies!
Fixed-Axle February is coming up and I’ve made 5 of my handfilled MR85 bearing blanks for people to try.
Each is a high quality bearing (2.5mm width) - with rounded edges and a nice polished finish - carefully filled with steel epoxy to a nice clean recess. (This is a real pain to do… I do it solely out of passion ). This is how I setup my [go-to edc RBC](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/fixed-axle-friday-throws/294546/3407). They also work great in the MK1+SW Harbinger. And yes I am aware that taking a precision bearing and filling it with epoxy is madness, but I like it. 😏
They are $10 USD each (PayPal F&F preferred), shipped by letter post from Canada (if you order more than 1, then additional blanks are $8). I will also include my favourite string for this setup. Send me a DM if you want one.
If I mail it this week it should arrive in the US in about two weeks. But no promises, especially since CanadaPost just came off a strike and may still have some backlog.

Have you run one of these in an Origen? Super tempting. I just bought an A blank to Fixie my Confusion which has a bit higher walls than the Origen. I’m debating greatly if I should snag one of these for the Origen. It’s my only MR85…hmmm…I suspect these are going to go fast.

Hey, yes I do have one in my Origen and it works great. The Origen and Harbinger have slightly larger gaps than the RBC, so I use a thicker string to keep them from kicking back.
Obviously all these yo-yos work great stock, making them fixed makes them snappier, quieter, low maintenance and it tames some of the raw POWER. :joy: It does kill the spin time though, obviously.

I bought some of these for last year’s FAF. Alex does killer work!

Y’all, put this on the metal Harbinger and thank me later. It’s practically cheating. I think I’m going to leave mine in permanently going forward, haha.

I have 2 left. I’m going away on vacation Monday, so that will be the last day that I can send these out. Get them while you can, I likely won’t make any more for a bit. 🐆

I am taking a Play from Mr. Xanadu’s Playbook and have had one of his blanks in my RBC since July. Not going back to a bearing on this one.
I will have to put my other Xanadu MR85 in the Harbinger when I get home. Not sure why I didn’t think of this.
