Which is 0.055mm, and indeed it's more than them OEM nominal clearance of 0.0381mm
, and interestingly slightly less than BE's v1 0.0597 mm. [edit] Just found out that BE's v2 bearings have slightly larger Nominal Rod Bearing Clearance of 0.0681 mm (0.00268 inch), curious.
Btw, you can't tell anything much of it's quality by holding it in your hand
