Non graded bearings will simply never be as good as a better bearing even when you first install them, that's a reality, will they spin your wheel around and around, yes and maybe even a little bit sideways give or take.  Guess I'm saying how do you think they come up with 5 grades of deep groove roller bearings and then there are the ones y'all are buying at 4 bucks each and not graded at all.  Wheel bearings are obviously very important and highly stressed on a trials bike, was asked what I use and recommend and that's it, graded name brand bearings.   I don't pay that much but I don't buy them in US, maybe it's a tariff thing

Thanks lemur! After thinking about it, I agree with you, that I don’t want to risk it. I think it’s just up to personal preference on how much one wants to spend. I’m a firm believer in “you get what you pay for” but it’s tempting to save a few bucks. I don’t need the bearings yet but know now what I’ll be purchasing in the future. Cheers!
