PMSL at most of the crap about bearings on here...
Loved the quoted statement
I sell bearings and have done for pretty much half my life and laugh everytime the mere mention of bearings and their quality appears in the RC world. Where i work only sells from the Major Manufacturers and do not deal in chinese quality, but for personal use, i can obtain them.
ABEC ratings mean shit in our hobby to be totally honest.
And if they were truly and genuinely ABEC, you wouldn't pay what they would actually be. BOCA have it about right.
Stop getting hung up on ABEC Ratings !!!
Buy a good quality bearing and use it. Also, that bit you do after buying it, greatly effects them... Looking after them.
Oh and yeh, i use and sell 'Chinese' Bearings. I do not advertise or sprout off about them being this or that. I just know that they are perfectly good anough for what we want and need.
Anyway, i try not to be dragged into Bearing debates, but i have on this occasion, crap.... Bye.....
