Wheel bearing creaking, snapping noises

[Jacek]

at first when i put my wheel on in the back, it spins smoothly, no noises
then after 1 minute of riding, its starts creacking and not spining.
my bearings are brand new reds, the wheel is a brand new unovalized pro model wheel.

what is causing the noise?

Have you got a bearing spacer in? Cause if you have the axle tight without a bearing spacer that could cause some issues. If you have them stupid plastic wheels spacers they could be cracked/smashed and moving around, sometimes jarring your wheel. I don't really know, they are just some suggestions

i hav a bearing spacer inside. i have bearings spacers taht are slightly longer and slightly shorter than each other from longboarding and stuff, so maybe my spacer is too small. its metal and its not the razor pro rear axle spacers.

then it probably wont do anything at all. the point of a bearing spacer is to let the bearings spin freely no matter how tight you put it. if it isn't long enough, as soon as you put it tight you may aswell not have a spacer in there at all. You should of used the ones that came with the promodel. Skateboard ones work too, but i guess longboard ones don't

O ok thanks ill try.i used them cause when i used pro model spacers, one bearing on one side would stick out like 2mm, so i figured a spacer that let the bearings sit flush would be better. this one still lets them spin, but maybe it needs to be longer, idk

longboard ones shud be fine, ive done it, and longboard wheels are identical to skateboard wheels but bigger

my spoked purple and white blunt wheels were doing the same thing except mine spun and creaked but after a while it goes away found out it was the spacer fixed it up now
