My Works one has had its 3rd set of bearings in 18 months. took my forks out and the bearing literally fell apart, rusty balls fell out of retainers all over the floor, outer race stuck in the cups, they work great but sealing is awful. I’ve put in some hybrid ceramics off ebay, cant be any worse than the normal ones. Works didn’t have any spares in stock and didnt reply to my email asking for availability.
I’ve tried offset bushings as well, they drop the BB nicely and slacken everything off a touch, great for the Alps but didn’t like it for normal riding due to slacker seat angle.
