I need a new front wheel for the xr+. one of the bearings is loose and moves side to side
I can get a 20mm wheel but then i need bearings and adapters too so i would like to avoid it if possibleBeamerBob - 31-1-2013 at 11:30 AM

Here you go. Get the option with the wheel, bearings, spacer and 12mm adapter. $26 plus shipping and you have all brand new. This will also make
your wheels interchangeable on your buggy or if you needed to borrow one from someone.
All the bearings you need. Most under two bucks... :bigok:BeamerBob - 31-1-2013 at 01:13 PM
If the bearing is loose in the wheel, new bearings won't help. Your current bearings might be fine and the new ones would be loose as well. The
problem most likely is that the plastic has loosened and nothing you do will cause the bearings to fit snugly in the wheel.shortlineflyer - 31-1-2013 at 01:28 PM
yep thats what happenedmacboy - 31-1-2013 at 04:41 PM
Let me dig in the garage. I think I have a complete spare (new) kicking around. Give me to the weekend if you can. It's CCCCCOLD here right now. It's
not a midi though - just standard. If that's OK let me know and I'll dig. (Pretty sure the wheels are the same - you could swap the tire or I could
send you just the wheel).carltb - 31-1-2013 at 04:44 PM
you can try wrapping electrical tape around the bearing before you put it in the wheel, then use a craft knife to cut off the excessBeamerBob - 31-1-2013 at 05:01 PM
I had one as well but the libre I just traded for uses 12mm bearings in front and I'm using my spare now.shortlineflyer - 31-1-2013 at 05:46 PM
macboy I am definitely interested, how much do you want for the complete wheel and tiremacboy - 4-2-2013 at 06:02 PM
Sorry for the delay. Unearthed it today. Shot you a U2U.rocfighter - 4-2-2013 at 06:47 PM
Bobby what did you trade for the Libre?BeamerBob - 4-2-2013 at 07:21 PM
I traded Donald Gould my Flexifoil Navaro for his Libre Hardcore he had for sale. It is a much more appropriate buggy for my younger son Jared on the
lakebed. He is a cruiser and hadn't gotten into any freestyle stuff so this was an improvement for him. Now everyone has a buggy they feel secure in
and the comfort to put in lots of miles.
