Default RE: 1 way bearing, grease or no?

OK. It's Alex not Graham and that shaft will rotate nearer 35,000 to 40,000 when it gets up to speed. These bearings should be dry as they use the oil that comes through the backplate bush as lube. It's when this and the grease mix the bearings stick and the pullstsrts fail to grip. So dont say I didn't warn you. But it's not hard to clean them when this happens, just be ready for it.
