Hi All,

Time for me to replace the bearings in my WTB Laser Lite hubs (front and rear)

What are the best bearings? Enduro Bearings? http://www.endurobearings.com/

What size is the right size?

Thanks! :thumbsup:

Boca Bearings carry good bearings too. Here's a list of their bearings for WTB hubs.

Cool!

Looks like 2 bearings up front and 4 in the rear.

What's the advantage/disadvantage of CERAMIC? LONG life?

The advantages are advertised to be:
longer life
rounder balls
less turning resistance
no rust
less weight
lighter wallet (well, this part is most assuredly true)
