Default Gimbal bearing
Is there different gimbal bearings between the b1-x-XR drive?
Or are they all the same now?

I believe the XR takes a different bearing due to the larger diameter shafts . My bud just made this change and it is simple .

If you buy a new bearing, there is only one now that works for both. Non greasable.

if you get the gimbal bearing from sierra you can still grease it. I just put one in about 4 hours ago
