Because the parts suppliers continue to sell the crappy bearings, and
many people don't know about the issue (they may not have been list
serve members at the time it was discussed, or maybe didn't follow
along, etc). These bad parts are going to be in the supply chain for a
while, so this problem will continue until everyone gets educated. The
suppliers really should pull this junk from their shelves and use
better stuff, but I'm sure it's too big a loss for them. Anyone who
has checked out Nelson's articles about this on the Buckeye site will
clearly see what the issue is and what the best option is. I am amazed
(and disappointed) that TRF did not follow Dick Taylor's advice
regarding the Gunst.
