4800km and still running strong! Maybe I just jinxed it!! :(

Had the roller that I replaced, gave it a massive brake clean job like DJ mentioned, bunch of brown crap washed out. But, the cage inside loosened right up and spun like a bugger! I believe that resistance you feel is the rubber seals, as this washed roller had the same feel with the shaft...

So my question would be is why would the new roller I bought be so stiff! It was like the ones that had 4700kms on them. Do you figure it's clutch dust that bungs them up??? I always thought they should roll easier than they do but the new roller threw me off....

I was barely even stuck!!! :cool: (y)

Blue, yesterday. Phenomenal! Where? Everywhere! Billdozer, Lawn Dart, Roberto and myself hit the freshly groomed trail not bright or early, kinda like us. The majority of sledders appeared to veer off at 10km and hit Sugar Loaf, we opted for the usual route and were not disappointed. Every...

Did a little engineering and made a hard rubber stopper that I could insert into the bearing, which was then tight enough to actually spin the bearing itself. To answer my own question, yes, the cage does spin along with the needle bearings. The bearing I replaced, nothing wrong with it, is...

Two sleds with the spacers, lots of kms on both and they have worked flawlessly! I can actually turn the rear spring down one notch and have a better ride on the trail, even with all my bulk! Great product.........

So that cage that holds the needle bearings is supposed to rotate as well? What'd you use to clean them out.? Thanx!

This may have been covered before but I can't find it. Primary rollers, is that a cage the needle bearings are in that rotates with the bearings??? The reason I ask is that 2 of mine do not rotate, and with information from a "mechanic " they should be replaced. I bought one, it doesn't...

Depends on how far it throws you off the sled or breaks ribs on the handlebars upon impact in the ditch! Can also be affectionately known as a dozer ditch !! :ROFLMAO:

I used to think that until over 65, now it's more like "the brain says go but the body says no!" Mind you, the Mrs keeps telling me to grow up and when my oncologist asked me where I grew up, I told her I never did! 🤣😎👍

That's a great idea, finally some age recognition! One day you'll be there young fella, at least I'm still shredding the white stuff! :ROFLMAO:

Yup, just ride it and love it! Maybe I'm just an old guy but I wouldn't go back to anything shorter. Maybe it's the farmer in me that likes tractors! :cool:

Footlongs with mustard, jalapeños and saurkraut!!!!!!!!!👊

Not saying it wouldn't be a good thing but if not why not at least keep the website up-to-date, I think that's the place most folks go first when doing a search..
