3rd bearing?

[KODA87]

hey im looking at peds and people have put 3rd bearings on. what exactly do they do and what is it? is it good or bad? im clueless

you dont need 3rd bearing support unless you plan to do freestyle or jump
all it does is keeps the crankshaft and spindle from breaking when your jumping. and if you buy one you need a long drive spindle. they are good if ever you decide to jump. {if you cant afford an expensive ramp or live near a
skatepark that allows gopeds buy those plastic Xfactor ramps they work good. i use to jump on my liquamatic when it use to have a clutch but it dont recomended. the clutch is kinda like a 3rd bearing support dont try it}

i have a liquamatic that we converted into a sport with a g23lh {stock engine,i might change it to a g230rc}.750 BM spindle
sikk 1 pipe {copy of ada s1 pipe} and replacement jet needle for stock carb {non-tunable} so the pipe preforms better. What kind of goped do you have
and what mods you got?

thnx alot you really answered my question. i will probably get one of those then. i don't have a goped YET but i working on getting one and the one im looking at right now is a Super x ped. its looks tuff and had some mods already on it. but if you have any sugg. i would apreeciate them. thnx again

Yes, all Super models now come with G260RC's, not G230RC's, unless stated otherwise.

go for it unless you have never riden or worked on a goped because the g260
engines need more maintainece than a stock g23lh and you also have to tune
the g260. if you do it wrong, you can seize the engine.So, if you have experiance with this, go for it. if you dont, get a sport or the regular xpeds
they have g23lh engines, these engines are almost indestructable, they last forever. try it i have a g23lh on my goped

A 3rd bearing is a good investment. Make sure you lube the bearing once and again...allthough most dont do it....it has shown me positive results opposed not to not doing it at all.

i recomend getting a 3rd bearing even if you arent gunna freestyle, just to be safe!!!
