And what abour 10-12mm Bearings for hubs / or angualr contact bearings?
If u mean 22x10x7 bearings? these already exist in the market.
Here’s a good video on the skate kastle kit. which gets thane on MBS trucks.
just doesn’t mention the bearing size used. realizing now that 22x12 is just not an iso size AFAICT after painful searching and trying to understand sizing specifications.
thus the need for a custom order presumably.
This kit is very expensive. I’ll have 22x12x7 customized non standard bearings soon in stock.
I thought all those spacers were interesting. does it really require that many to set it up?
yup, and we covered that already but I still thought the video was interesting.
61900 bearings would work. A little narrower than the standard 608 8mm bore. These have the same 22mm outer diameter but with a 10mm bore.
We are trying to target 12mm axle,10 is kinda solved I guess.
I will point out that any 12mm x 22mm bearing is going to have a low load rating. Probably around half that of 608, so they won’t be that robust
I tried this once.
It was expensive, and I was always worried about wearing through them and having to buy more, so I wouldn’t ride the thing. So I’m back to pneumatic and they sit on a shelf.
I would totally ride it if we could get a set for your proposed amount.
cross linking this magic bearing chatter.
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.
Yeah and as i said before I’d recommend going an alternative route as the ball bearings are dangerously small
me personally I’d machine down the axles to 10mm…
Do MBS axles unscrew?
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, sorry. I get mine tomorrow and was curious.
Weren’t you using ROckstars? those have 27mm seats
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.
