Replace chain roller?

@calum really? Seems to be genuine. Can't get them much cheaper from what I can find.

@calum were the rollers from the Yamaha factory "grooved" like the one you linked or straight like the one I linked? Perhaps my existing isn't in desperate need if replacing.

But I dunno, seems a lot for some chain rollers if you ask me.

Good news! Found flat chain rollers in a local shop nearby. Will get them for sure. So much nicer than having to wait until April 20th if I ordered from eBay.

why would you want to do that they’re only a few pounds and the wood would rot chip splinter and just not function properly I really don’t see an upside to using wood unless you do? -

Nah man, I'd definitely look into penny board wheels, you could get OEM looking rollers, better quality for next to nothing.
Just need to research it a little to ensure you do actually buy ones that fit. I am dead certain I saw someone do it.
