Is it just me, or are the bearings in a YYF yoyo extremely hard to get out?

Many YYF’s are hard to get out. It’s normal and nothing to worry about. However, I would invest in a bearing puller tool and/or a YYF mult-tool to help get stubborn bearings out nicely.

Well I don’t believe it doesn’t have much to do with the bearing but more with the bearing seat. I notice on some of YYF throws the bearing seat really tight agree with Studio42 Multi-Tool helps out. Would be nice if it was not needed though.

It is the bearing seat rather than the bearing. But again, it’s normal for YYF and a few other brands to be super tight like that.
