Right on my friend for the welcome...very  8)  :) I usually spend all my time over at the Museum and live under the same name. I found this place while browsing for an answer to my question.   :)

I've had more members and people willing to help here then anywhere else, seems like a very "RAD" place to visit...thanks for all the input so far all  ;)

Basically, in it's stock form that's what the DX cranks came with. They are a cone and loosebal setup and they have these cool plastic cones that slip over the cup edges and somewhat seal the bearings from the elements.

Ideally I just want to have a total sealed cartridge bearing setup for lack of maintenance and better performance. If I find a setup that uses cartridge's then I can use full ceramics or Hybrids, huge difference in performance and smoothness compared to a OS ball and cage.

Well it was a longshot but I figured I would at least ask first. Looks like it's time to have a custom spindle made  :daumenhoch:
