Anyone got experience? How long did yours lasted? Planning to replace rear hub bearings and I'm open to other suggestions.

I read they were a waste of time and money.

Angular contact bearings are nothing new. You can try simple big brand ones before shelling out big money. They need a certain preload.

thx, I heard negative comments about XD15 AC bottom bracket bearings. But I'm really asking for experience on radial bearings for hubs like below.

I’ve been on a XD-15 AC PF30 BB for 3+ years now. Grease it once a year, if that. It’s on the bike that sees 95% of my riding, a FS 29er MTB. All weather/conditions in the Rocky Mountains.

Flawless. I would have killed a half dozen or more cheaper BBs in that time.
