Bucket development: A few questions for the wise ones

[Kickaha]

and well after ~10 hours of running I now have to agree and will be heading back to Steel mains.... which is a shame really as they did feel so nice.

Just replace them every 5, problem solved

No I wasnt , Im dutch
..............? I just wondered when you said this thats all

Bucket racing is affordable , if you have enough money you can afford it.

Bearings !!!!!!!!! Ceramic bearings are made for what ? Industrial purpose I would guess, so they no problem ,

When one of the kids drops a mug i use an er... vacuum cleaner............Too soon....
PS i am resisting the urge and man i am trying.
Shit thats really a mess though bugger, no injuries to you i hope then .....

Feel Free; sort of have to take what ever is dished out really. funny enough I got the vacuum out to clean it up:niceone:

Luckily, I think that it all collapse at once (coming to a complete stop mid stroke). There was very little signs of ceramics making it past the transfers ports.
There is only a couple of marks on the crank and some very small scoring in the castings and in the barrel;

As for me, other than a four day headache and few bruises not too bad really; wifefy isn't too happy (two outings two crashes):argue:
and the $$ for doctors and to buy new helmet etc (a little hard to hide those purchases):killingme



Just replace them every 5, problem solved

I haven't completely given up on the idea; but there are other easier performance gains to chase first.


But; I do recall Wobby and/or Fits writing about "Cylindrical roller bearing" anyone played with these??

We use double row self aligning phenolic caged ball races, been pretty good so far.
