how do u tape them the right way so the breaing stays in ive tried itabout 4 times and they get messed up ever hard day of riding

Use Scotchtape and only put 1 layer around the bearing.

 

[Dylan Kasson]

I dont know if there would be a peice of metal thin enough but if there was you might be able to make a metal shim around your bearing and that wouldnt give like tape does

 

[Scala525]

After about a week you have to change the tape anyways.

i did not even know dehubbing a metal core was possible, BUT IN THE FRONT?

 

[Scala525]

Yea i was there at woodbridge when Brian dehubbed like 2 metalcores.

 

[Brian Murphy]

metal shim sounds good but yea 1 layer doesn cut it last tape job i did was liek 5 layers

murphy, i hate to say it, but you're completely fucked in terms of scooters. you need to find a way to stop landing so fucking hard. for real. you suck at landing.

Maybe see if that heavy metal pete guy will make you a pair of his wheels, I doubt you could ovalize his. Then when you dehub them send them back to him and get new urathane put on. If he would do that for you that is, It would probly cost alot though.

superglue works the best no tape shit needed just superglue the bearings and shove it in quick and yur set

are you kidding?

wont it get stuck and not spin, then not come out?

 

[koenscoot]

it will spin fine but you probably will never get them out

 

[.erik]

which shouldnt be a problem i guess unless you brake bearings quick

well if you break them, then you could probably soak them in nail polish remover and hammer them out with a bolt.

that may be so, but my scooters will last shitload longer than yours. so in the end i win, because you're gonna be fuckin' broke from constantly buying parts and new scooters.
