Quality and price on front hubs
« on: September 28, 2014, 12:08:22 pm »
Are the front hubs on Bmi and Ec the same or is the Ec hubs better? Cost is half as much from Bmi.

BMI has great quality parts and really good prices.  I've been buying chassis parts from them for years. They have great service and quick shipping as well.

Always bought bmi great quality buy for thousands every year great service but shipping is on the expensive side i order a lot at once to make it worth it, or make one order for many clients

If your getting a year of racing out of a Dollar bearing they can't be bad at all. Does anyone have the part # of the better quality bearing, not the ceramic one. Thanks
