Mountainboard ABEC 5 Bearing 6001 2RS (12 x 28 x 8mm) Removable sidewalls with Embossed Logo

TRAMPA's very own Mountainboard Bearings measure 12 x 28 x 8mm & will fit in to all of the Hubs that TRAMPA has to offer. 

TRAMPA's precision made Bearings are polished to an internationally recognised ABEC 7 quality. (ABEC 3-5 is recognised as the industry standard). ABEC 7 polishing gives you a super smooth, super fast ride with extendend free rolling & top end roll speeds.

The Bearings are designed to fit TRAMPA wheels directly to 12mm axles, however using Bearing Reducer Spacers you are able to make 6001-2RS Bearings fit to Mini Spring Truck or 12FIFTIES Truck which both use 9.525mm Axles... Using Bearing reducer sleeves on 9.525mm Axles gives a very neat flush finish to the assembly insuring your Bearings spin freely.

Mountainboard Bearings are officially known as 6001 2RS Bearings. 6001 tells you the bearings size whilst 2RS means the bearing has 2 Removable Sides. During production the rubber coated sidewalls are inserted into the Outer raceway & are in contact with the inner raceway, they protect the single row of lubricated ball bearings housed within the enclosed raceways from the ingress of moisture, dust & dirt, retaining the pre-filled grease within the bearing, maintaining maximum performance to the board & rider for as long as possible. The rubber coated sidewalls come in RED, BLUE & BLACK or CERAMIC GREEN & are embossed with the TRAMPA logo proving the Top Quality!

The sidewalls are removable so you can service your bearings... Servicing your bearings on a regular basis will ensure they run well for you. Remove your wheels & take out your bearings, then using a pointy object simply pick off one side of the bearings & pop them into some solvent or fuel to dissolve any grease, i use an old tooth brush to rub the bearings gently, hopefully removing all the dirt that gets in... I pop them into another pot of clean fuel & make sure the fuel stays clean so i know the bearings are clean.. Once clean i take them out, placing onto some tissue or similar to dry out, you can rub them or blow them dry with an air line which is fun as they mae a whizzy noise! once dry i add a few tiny drops of sewing machine oil & place the bearing, open side into the wheel leaving the 1 side that still has the rubber sidewall in the outer position protecting your bearings from the further ingress of dirt getting in.... Repeat according to your riding demands, more riding = more servicing if you want best performance!
