How to Clean Bearings

Now that winter is approaching you should consider cleaning and re-lubricating your bearings before you let your board sit around waiting to be ridden. You should also clean and re-lubricate your bearings regularly during the riding season to clean out all the grime and dirt that will eventually destroy your bearings and slow you down. Also while your board sits your bearings can collect dust and dry up. It is extremely important to re-lubricate your bearings especially if you enjoy riding fast. Your bearings can heat up and weld the races to the ball bearings causing you to bail hard!

So make sure to follow these instructions and take into consideration the information provided by Bones Bearings in this link: Bearing Maintenance
