    Exclamation Abec 7 Bearings Slow

    Hey guys. I have Abec 7 bearings and I have just cleaned them all up with some kind of cleaner, (forgot the name) and now they all seem to work fine except for one wheel. I don't really know how to clean them all up good and how to make the one slow wheel go faster. Can someone please help me?

    P.S.: If this helps any at all, all the other wheels stop nearly the same time.

    Take the bearing seals off.
    Clean the bearings with solvent, rinse them with rubbing alcohol, let em dry in the sun, then either put a small amount of bearing grease in, or a couple of drops of bearing oil, such as speed cream, which is a liquid not a cream.
    Put the seals back on and off you go.

    Uh, it doesn't matter how long it spins when you spin it by hand, does it at least work when riding? If yes, then you're good to go. If no, then even after cleaning there is no saving it.
