Review on Sure Grip Bearing Press by Derek Evans

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Changing wheels is much easier!

I play roller derby and wanted a bearing press because I find it difficult and time consuming to remove wheel bearings with a regular bearing tool. My initial solution to this problem was to buy a set of bearings for every additional set of wheels I bought, but that got expensive. What made me choose this particular camp press is that it is portable and doesn't need to be attached to a table. This allows me to bring it to practice and fights and to share it with other skaters. One thing I would suggest is that the seller provide instructions. Using a bearing press might seem obvious, but little things like not knowing how to pull the hook far enough to grab the bearing kept me from getting the bearing press to work until another skater showed me how. The lack of directions made me rate 4 instead of 5.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Damaged
