How much worse were your bearings Dave? How bad do you think my bearings look in the pic? I tried to get better pics, but couldn't get any that show how bad the very front and the read 3 bearings actually are. I checked the crank very well and found nothing bad at all. Considering that the bearings show a lot of damage, I'm just glad the crank is in still good shape.
I'll check for play in the crank to see if the mains are still good tomorrow, thanks for the tip!
