Default Bearing kits

I would like to fit some quality bearings to my DEX410/R. The kit ones look and feel low quality and are not sealed. I usually run Answer bearings in my X6/B44 but I can't see Durango kit offerings on their site.

Any suggestions?

Acer do a ceramic kit but fairly expensive. There is also Yeah Racing Teflon Sealed ones on ebay - http://cgi.ebay.com/Yeah-Racing-Blue...item58894cd3ac but i know a few people just buy single bearings from Avid.

OK thanks Graham, I must have missed that. I'll look again.

AND thanks for all the other replies, I'll look into those as well.

We do list a Durango one but the site needs a revamp!

To be fair most of the issue with Duarango bearings is 5*10mm which we do a tube of 10pcs for £6. These are the 1 Rubber seal and 1 Metal sheild to give you a mix of dirt protection and low resistance (run the rubber seal to the outer)

ANSBR0510 is the part # for the tube of 10pcs
ANSBRDEX1 is the part # for the complete set, ironically despite us being Brits and the kits being assembled over here Google only shows our export customers listing it.

Thanks Pete. No matter what I do I can't find any reference to ANSBRDEX1 on your website. Also the ANSBR0510 is shown as a 1/8th bearing so could easilly be missed by us 1/10th drivers. I really love your bearings - please help me to buy from you.

We've just got the new Lazy Bearings in stock, great quality rubber sealed if you want less resistance on the inside, just flick a seal off.

They're not on our site yet, but are in packs of ten for £7.

PM me or contact me via http://rcLazy.com/contact

It seems there are plenty of us at the bearings game these days!

ANSBR0510 is availble from Mk Racing, Apex Models and Bolton Model Mart amongst many others.
