with the walsh peice all you have to is replace the bearing versus the whole stock assembly when you start to get play and from my understanding it lasts a hell of a lot longer than the stock one. ive had my bike for less than a year and my stock one is already shot i believe the last time i looked there were are $175 ill definatly be picking ne up very shortly
