| Ok, today i cleaned out my heely wheels and i went to spin one of the wheels and it made like a crunching sound. It was sounds of dirt rolling around, so i cleaned them again,it still made the sound..does anyone know how to get that out? Also, what else can damage heely wheels? |

| Fats bearings, right? If you can unscrew the axles (some don't unscrew) and take out the bearings, put some lube on them and then spin them between your fingers for a while. Some black, dirty crud might come out. Without disassembling the bearing, it's hard to actually clean it, but that's my recommended method. |

Wow. Double post of the same thing... I'm thinking they're the coin axle type. I have ABEC 7 fats and they're coin axle. They should just be able to come apart when you spin them the opposite way. |

If they are the ones that come with your shoes you need some special tool from a hardware store. Just buy new wheels... thats what I did haha. |
