Re: Sealed Or Shielded Bearings?
I have been going shielded and servicing them for the last few years. No special tools other than a pin to pull the shields off of. Some of the race bearings I run without the shields internally since they are serviced between races.

Sealed Or Shielded Bearings?
So what are you doing?
• Sealed and riding til they give up and get new.
• Shielded and doing a maintenance and lubrication routine.
Do you have the tools for working on shielded bearings? (The little gizmos for removing the retaining ring.)
