My green machines (been riding for 9 months) sqweak a ton. They urethane is a little cracked and every time they roll one part of the urethane makes a LOUD annoying squaking noise. Is it just from the cracks?

either your bearings or your or you have cracks in your core, my old as get that way when the cores start to crack its really anoying i suggest if you want to save them then you should hot glue them or use epoxy

its the wheel. when the urethane on a wheel wears down so far the squeaking starts to happen. either ride it anyway or get new wheels.

whenever my wheel squeaks it usually happens when it is ovalized... so i would use some electrical tape or something..
having it squeak on plastic cores is like have the "death" click on metal cores.

Its not the bearings or the cores. I have switched the bearings and checked the cores. Jordan was right. Its just the urethane. And yeah, 9 months is a ton, but they held up!

Well today i was riding and then i go to look at my back wheel...i find that my bearing cap (i have pro model bearings) is fuckked up to the max, its all shrivelled up and is like 1/2 the size it used to be, what theeee fuck! seriously, anything i can do?
