I remember a while ago, someone in Sweden (I think) was making polyurethane carrier bearings but I don't remember what happened to that whole project.
It got me thinking. Is there an optimal range of flex that you want a carrier bearing to have. I mean, would it be detrimental to have solid carrier bearings? Obviously too soft and you'd have unwanted shaft movement (That's what she said! Ooooohhhh hehe jk -_-), but is it possible to have a carrier bearing that is too stiff?
Even if those poly carrier bearings were available (which I don't know if they are), would you really want them to be less flexible than a set of new stock bearings?
