12x22mm is a bad idea for what we do. you realize that each ball is gonna be less than 5 mm right?

yeah that’s the rub. the bearing is expensive and you’re likely going to kill it fast and/or unexpectedly.

I cant answer that but Im assuming youre talking about matrix 2? I do not believe so. MAtrix 2 should be 9.5mm though

Yes but I also have some evolve hubs.

I’ll probably end up using the rockstars for 6” tires as well, just wanted an easy swap lol.
