[williamsf1]

what replacement bearings (after market?) can you press into a zipp BB

help?

I have the Zipp regular and ceramic bearings and both are excellent bearings although the ceramic one is the one in use now. When I have to replace it this is what I'll be using:

The 6806 from this page.

Juan, can i just ask your thoughts on why the Ceramic Hybrid bearings for the replacement and not the Full Ceramic?

[Juanmoretime]

While I think the ceramic hybrids feel much smoother than the standard bearings the jury is still out on whether there is any real advantage at all. I do know poorly make ceramics, and I think this would apply to full ceramics too, can be a worse choice then a well made steel bearing. Madcow has tested the bearings that Fairwheel sells so that if you choose to go that route you're not getting a bearing that is worse than the stock. Some day I may try full but I just really have not ventured that far yet to get into full ceramics but I do have a couple of race wheels that could be eager volunteers!
