New lister today. First post. The carbon-like material of my release bearing went to pieces yesterday. Everything was a fresh rebuild just over a year ago. Making plans to pull the drivetrain. A fell

I hear ya, but I'm in the midst of bearing hell at work right now with an angular contact ball bearing that is failing under minimal thrust load, so I'm a little biased at the moment. There was a bea

Now we know why they self destruct in a month. BUT the chinks make this stuff to "our specs" so I have heard. Well if it's made in china, it WILL fail if it even works out of the box. The box it come
