Thanks Gary, that’s what I thought. Just thought I’d raise this as someone buying just that bearing press will be very annoyed when they come to remove the bearings and find that they can’t.
These are the bearings I ordered, haven't unpacked or fitted them yet thoughCool the jets.
Just found this on kinetics site.....

Any ideas where the extra 2 come from?
This is what I did - I have got full replacement hardware from CRC, including motor mounting bolts, so going to get that all swapped out when I get bearings doneI want to keep mine going for another year or two if I can, should have 18 months warranty on the motor and going to get a 630wh battery for it
What do we think the wear on the aluminium pivot hardwear will be like, I'm guessing it's going to develop play at some point? Thinking maybe I should get spares while available
I see the ones on sale at CRC are listed as silver although photos show black, what turned up?This is what I did - I have got full replacement hardware from CRC, including motor mounting bolts, so going to get that all swapped out when I get bearings done
2018 defo has 14, that is what is included in the kit from MB. Do we think the quality of the bearings in the Kinetic kit (Abec 3 Max) is worth over twice the price of the one from MB? I hate changing bearings so if they last twice as long defo worth it in my book
