Like many of you have had to over the years,I am faced again with bearing replacement in one of my avets.This time around its my JX 6/3.I am considering doing it myself this time and going with Boca bearings,an ABEC 7 Ceramic bearing.Just curious if anyone else has taken the plunge.The bearing kit is $57.95 and in comparison sending it to AVET for repair costs $44 which includes whatever bearings are needed.
Just inquiring if anyone has used them and what do you think.I think we can all agree that our gear will be getting a workout this year.
