Hub BearingsUpdated 2 months ago

BMX hub bearings are crucial components in a bike's wheel system. They come in three main types: sealed, unsealed, and semi-sealed. 

Sealed bearings are fully enclosed, protecting them from dirt and moisture, which extends their lifespan and reduces maintenance. We always recommend opting for sealed bearings throughout your bike.

Unsealed bearings, are exposed to the elements, requiring frequent cleaning and regreasing to prevent damage and ensure smooth operation.

Semi-sealed hubs offer a compromise, with sealed bearings on the driver to protect the internal mechanism, while the hub bearings remain unsealed.
