    I have a kaabo mantis 10 lite that the ball bearing are starting to make a crunching noise not sure if it's possible to change the bearings or just get a whole new wheel

    Thanks for posting this. I may try the glue as well, my son has the RX200 and on the first ride, on a side walk, the front wheel bearing came dislodged. I had to disassemble the wheel and tap them back into place. i did notice there was no spacer between the bearings on the center of the wheel - I wonder if that's how it came dislodged.

      Actually, the proper fix would have been too change the wheel altogether, as the hub was improperly manufactured. So the idea here was to get some use of this bad wheel before changing it... It's still working, btw!

    • @CosminRotaru

      Bearings had play in the wheel due to poor tolerances... I decided to glue the bearings in place. Since I had to take apart the whole thing and the bearings are cheap I decided to put new ones. Otherwise the old ones were just fine. I don't even think they needed re-greasing. I would not recommend re-greasing old sealed bearings anyway (unless they are expensive / hard to find).

    • @CosminRotaru
      @CosminRotaru  5 років тому +1

      Hi! As I said in the description there was some play - bearings were able to move in the wheel (as shown in the video). That's a huge deal especially with the breaking system they have. It is impossible to align the breaking pads since the wheel would move... Anyway, the problem is in the bad tolerance in the wheel itself. New bearings had the same play. That's why I glued them.

I got it because it says "metal" on it. And it's fast. And bi-component (somehow I have the impresion that bi-component glues are stronger - but I don't know if that is true). Anyway, anything that glues metal... And make sure the parts are de-greased (but without getting de-grease agent inside the bearing itself...). I used spirit :)

      Just from a local store specialized in bearings and gaskets... Is not special about the bearings. "standard" bearings. Just make sure you choose a good known manufacturer. I only knew about SKF and I've heard about them since I was a child. Go with the best you know as bearings are cheap anyway.

    NO! BIG NO!!
    NEVER GLUE THE BEARINGS TO THE RIM!
    1- THERE'S SAFETY PIN TO HOLD THEM SO NO NEED GLUE
    2- YOU CANNOT REPLACE WHEN YOU NEEDED.

    • @CosminRotaru
      @CosminRotaru  4 місяці тому

      Asi already explained, the wheel hub was out off specs from the factory. The bearing did not perfectly fit inside - there was some play. The safety pin does not help with that. The bearing itself was ok (but we did put a new one inside). Because of that play it was impossible to correctly adjust the brake. The perfect fix for this would have been to replace the wheel. But before replacing the wheel i choose to glue the bearing (which, btw, did fix the issue and it still works fine). There is no option to replace the bearing on this one indeed. And there would never be a time to replace the bearing ever. When that fails a new wheel will be needed. So this was a temporary solution that still works to this day.
      Caps lock does nothing to your argument...
