i'm not sure tbh B, I bought an orphan Tuff cheap off the bay, it was cheap as there was some bearings missing, i'll just strip it down and measure one of the ones in it.

i did nt no. they fitted fine and spin real good with a load of lithium grease(let the debate begin-lol) so i am happy..caged are just an easy alternative to loose bearings. loose bearing came out originally !  :10_2_12: :daumenhoch:
