I ordered a set of Skiff Bearings for my Giant Mouse Ace Grand.
They came in yesterday and I tried to install them in the knife.
They seemed to fit around the pivot but the outer diameter of the bearing is a bit
smaller than the ones that came in the knife.
Is this how it's supposed to be?
Am I correct in assuming that the only dimensions that really matter are the Pivot Diameter
and overall thickness of the bearing (which is also the diameter of the individual balls)?
Thank you
