    Question Pedal bearings...

    I've heard that bearings are replaceable with those made for skateboards, furthermore, that it's the best. Has anyone done this? I hear there is only one size for both skateboards and pedals...are they the same?

    I suppose it would make sense. I'm a skater and a drummer, and the bearings look to be the same size.

    There's nothing that makes bearings 'skate bearings' or 'drum bearings', they're just bearings.

    Definitely worth trying out.

    I wonder if you could tell the difference between ABEC 1 and ABEC 4 bearings in a double kick pedal?

    Nope, the drum bearings are actually shaped like little drums. Most people don't know this. Open one up and look. You'll see.
