They are basically maintenance free whichis a plus if you plan on running offroad.

The place to buy bearings is

AVID RC BEARINGS

They have tons of options, whether you want rubber, metal, teflon, half rubber/half metal, and in lots of sizes.
I ordered 11 bearings from them, costing me 13 dollars. EACH BEARING IS ONLY $1. They are good quality too. The shipping is a flat $2.00 and they get new varieties almost every week. I highly recommend them. Oh and they also packaged them nicely.

How do I find out what size I need. I have a blackfoot extreme. Does anyone know if the gear box for the blackfoot has bearings or do I need to get some for that also?
