German and Swedish have supplied the inner and outer bearings as both Roller bearings. Taking the old ones off, one is a roller and the other is a ball bearing race. Is it ok to fit the replacement roller bearings? What are the pros and cons of rollers vs ball bearing races?

thanks

GSF bearings are not the best quality.
Brickwerks sell the correct bearings and the best quality...and they are roller

or see quality parts manufacturers at the top of the page.
