What skaters said on Reddit
No offence to skaters but they aren't the smartest dudes in the world and yet most skaters have no problem changing bearings. I think you're seriously overestimating the difficulty level of changing bearings. It's super easy, barely an inconvenience. [VIDEO] If this guy can show you how to do it in 2:39 then you definitely don't need someone else to do it for you. TBH, that video probably could have been 30 seconds l
A skate tool is about $10, but you don't have a wrench in the whole house?? Get yourself a wrench and a screwdriver at least. Even if you buy new wheels you'll still need bearings and you'll have to install them. Also your wheels are perfect, you just need new bearings. I recommend CCS or Spitfire Cheap shots which are both $10. [VIDEO]
put the axel into the bearing, but not all the way on. just the tip lmao. then pry it off almost like a bottle cap? super easy when u get it just right here’s a vid [VIDEO]
probably just needs a good twist. use the axle, put only one bearing (one side of the wheel) on the axle, and twist. [VIDEO] (i dont like doing this as I feel like it will damage the axle threads but it seems to work)
I dont know about any solvents since that could damage bearings but here is a tutorial. At 01:05 [VIDEO]
