So, I recently got a yyf Super G (my second) and it seems to be having a big problem.
The bearing is IMPOSSIBLE to get out! I've tried removal tool, multi tool, and pliers, but nothing seems to work.
And, now that i screwed up the bearing so much, its responsive and spins for about 30 seconds.
Please help!

Try putting the yo-yo half in the freezer for about 30 mins. It's helped me once or twice when I had a super tight bearing seat.

IT WORKED! Thank you!  I put it in for about 20 minutes and got out the bearing with the dull end of a drillbit. |

Stop with the pliers, seriously.  All the knotheads(  ) that recommend pliers, IMO they should have to donate to a bearing fund, so when someone ruins a bearing, due to following their bad advice, they can then apply to the fund and get said bearing replaced. In a perfect world lol. Or you could just not use pliers. There is never any reason to use pliers unless you set out to specifically ruin your bearing. A 1/4" drill bit works perfectly for C bearings, for A bearing it is 3/16". If you are unsure just grab a bunch of drill bit and try it, the proper one will fit into the inner race of the bearing. Rock the drill bit or bearing remover back and forth a bit, and you'll pop the bearing off. Stop the madness, use a drill bit or a bearing remover, pliers are for pinheads. I don't really care how many thousands of bearing you've removed with your trusty vice grips( its people like you who keep the fallacy alive), one day you'll ruin a bearing, guaranteed. |

Sounds like someone had a bad experience. |
