Karel...good point. If my math is correct, those little puppies rev up to just over 5000 rpm when traveling at 60 mph. Elsewhere on the McMaster site is a chart for "precision ball bearings" which rates the lowest grade at 5000 rpm. So...IF the so called "precision ball bearing" in the wheel I cited is what they say, it should be ok...it's worth checking w/ the manufacturer which I will do. What wheels do you use?
