Hi guys.

I searched but i couldnt find anything really related to eagles...

I was wondering how you get bearings out of eagles? I have a 110mm Hep Greg and i bought some new ceramic bearings and i dont know how to get the bearings outta it and i dont wanna stuff my wheel...

Thanks guys...

For a normal wheel i use a flathead screwdriver and pop them out, but that dont work on eagles, already tried...
 
if you have a spare rear axle shuv that in and rest it on the bottom bearing... then hit the top with a hammer :) then just put your new ones in :)

I never really understood the point of trying to sell aftermarket spacers... it's just so unnecessary lol.

I have eagle spacers and my bearings come out just fine, they also stay in one place when im changing wheels, unlike stock, so they r way better =]

The fuck?
Serious, the first reply was perfect.
Get a 5mm allen key.
Put it through the hole of the bearing on an angle.
Find a hard surface like concrete, solid metal etc.
Smack down a couple times.
Bearing comes out, spacer falls out.
Do the other bearing.
Your done. :p
