found full ceramic bearings 5.00 each

What did you pack in yours?

i used lucasoil marine grease on the last set i did,

i’m also exploring using superlube at some point as well

I wonder what would happen with some red 'n tacky

should be a o good to use

i pack to cover both sides spin to pack it in, put seals on and spin a couple times to squeeze out excess

ceramic bearing isn’t made for anything that require high speed or taking impact. period. everything will “technically” work until it fail and try to kill u, like 3dp printed plastic rims.

In the lab I got one of those plastic syringes for pet meds and used it to grease the gears, works pretty well after you cut the tip off to be more open, just used a plastic butter knife to scoop from the big tube to the syringe

I bet it works just as well for bearings
