Also. I'm not too understanding on your terms of bearings. Care to throw me a run-down someone so I have more of an understanding of what youre all babbling about?
just to make sure aswell...little box in the corner of the packaging..Black japanese writing if it's takara, fake if it's T.T Hongli. Am I correct?
I..... seem to have misplaced my bushings. [/embarassed]
Anyway,

This is the only existing picture I have on the computer for comparison purposes. On the right uses a bushing, and on the left a bearing. As you can see, the bushing is just a simple metal ring, while a bearing is... you should know what ball-bearings are, right?
It's obvious that the bearings will reduce the friction more than the bushings will.
Also, bearings can be tuned and seasoned. Tuning would be to remove the anti-rust grease in it; although it will rust faster, the performance is much smoother. Seasoning will either run it through many thousands of bey-battles, or using a motor, make it spin for days until the ball bearings are rounded smooth.
Bushings come with Bearing Stinger, Dranzer S, Zeus (takara), Kerberos
Bearings come with Wolborg, Wolborg2, Kerberos
You might notice Kerberos is on both lists. That is because its SG can fit two bearings. It comes with a bearing and a bushing, but the bushing can be swapped out.
Also, Flame Pegasus comes with a plastic bushing.
(If I'm missing out anything, please update)
In HMS era, Wolborg and Jiraiya have bearings, Dranzer MF has a bushing (I think). But since they cannot be taken out, no one cares.

I basically get bugger all of the terms concerning bearings, bases, etc. Which piece of it is a bearing, Say what it looks like and I think i'll be able to follow.
Not trying to sound bitchy, It's just gibberish to me XD
NSK is a brand xD I think they provide the bearings.
Also, (and I'm betting it was not an intended pun) Kerberos's box says "
Neo
Spin
Kore" on it somewhere. I used to think that was what NSK meant.

I don't find much use for Customize Bearing except when used for high speed attack with Wolborg2 shaft.
Isn't the Bearing Core the only shaft that can fit into Customize Bearing Base? You can put Wolborg 2's in, but it's really difficult to take out.
I never said it was supposed to be easy to take out, or to be able to spin smoothly.

When slightly worn down, Uriel2 cannot compare to this thing's speed. It's somewhat comparable to MSUV, I think. I'll test again later just to be sure, if I manage to finish my studies early.
