Keith, that is fantastic news that the new bearing seems to be resolving the issue thus far. I am looking forward to seeing how these perform under a heavier duty cycle.
Lars, I agree that it is a pretty simple job to swap out the front hubs. My reservation is more budget related than fear of wrench time. I would much prefer to hand over my hard earned cash to Bauer/FM for the new hub design than buy a stock replacement that i will have to swap out later anyways.

I registered just so I could come here and ask what is the latest on this development? Hasn't been updated in over two months. I tell you, I've been wanting taper bearing fronts for a while so I don't feel so bad about beating the crap out of the bearings at the track, plus I would much prefer the longer service interval the taper bearings would afford us. I'm throwing my money at the screen as I type!
