What bearings do yall use with the curados e7,6,5s
 
Just wondering if any of you guys change the bearings in the newer curados? I came across a deal at 110 dollars apiece so I got one of each gear ratio and after 4 reds pulling drag bearing froze up so disassemble and greased good. Seems a lot better now. But just wondering if there is a few things that you guys change?
