So true. I've had Traxxas bearings ($1.50 each or so) that failed after a few hours of use, since replacing with Avid Revolutions they have hundreds of hours without locking up and I very rarely even oil my bearings. Usually if I need a bearing I'll buy some from Amain though, they aren't as good but I hate paying shipping.


All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.
