quick question about metal cores and bearings

[tdadd]

Are bearings on Gino's 100mm eagles supposed to stick out a little bit? or be completly inside? Because I'm putting mine in and theres like a tiny little bit sticking out on each side.

thats the same with my protos your should be fine =)

 

[tdadd]

Really? because one side is sticking out a little bit more than the other.

 

[AaronA]

yea thats how my protos are as long as they go on the fork its fine

get a front axel and two bearings, put the bearing in the axel, put the wheel with both bearings on the axel, put the other bearing on the end and tighten really hard.

If it's in at the max just leave it like that and it should be fine.

uhhhhhhhh

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


That doesnt happen to my protos. they definitely shouldnt do that?!
Get them all the way in, put them in a vice
and squeezeeee

 

[AaronA]

thats bad if you over tighten it they it will spin real slow just leave it the way it is

I got them in, I just hammered them in with a rubber mallet. But yeah, is there a proper way of taking them out when I need to clean them?

I had the same problem haha.

Your spacer is too big. Try filing it down.

I got them in, I am using the Bones swiss spacers and they're plastic.
