i need to order some new bearings for some 2012 crossmax sx wheels, numbers i have for the front are 6805lu,for the rear 6903lu/6903z (i was also looking at a set of 2011 st wheels at the same time so got the letters muddles up on the rear)

anyway in there any advantage to going for metal shielded bearings over rubber shielded ones,is more exspensive always better? any advice on this welcome thanks

metal shielded will have less water resistance than rubber I think.

talk to katec on ebay.

Whatever you get pop the seals off and pack them with grease before fitting. I use ceramic bearings in my Kysrium from the |Hub |Doctor on ebay, U.S based guy, good bearings, fair prices.
