  • I have a brand new sugino 75bb but no bearings, am I right in thinking I can just use 11 loose 1/4" balls bearings without cages in it?

    Don't have any to hand but can pick some up tonight if this is true.

    You'll probably want one or two extra balls to account for the absence of cages spacing the balls apart evenly. If you use too few, they can all end up on one side of the bearing and your axle will flap around.
