The Speed Star Bearing works wonderfully on my DW-5000 pedal. There is a noticeable difference in the smoothness of the pedal action and it does accelerate the speed of the pedal itself. The DW pedals tend to feel a little "sticky" at times, but the Speed Star Bearing has solved that issue very well. Frankie Banali (Quiet Riot)
I love the speed star bearing on my DW pedal, it is a much smoother feel with power and control, A MUST HAVE, ENJOY. John Ferraro
I tried my DW6000 pedal with new bearing tonight at my gig, the action was so smooth with more speed yet still provide very natural response. I'm very happy with this:) Hong (Chanutr Techatana-nan)
Speed Star bearing is smother and faster than the factory one. Dana Bentley (Bentley's Drum Shop)
The Canopus Speed Star Bearing took my classic, reliable DW pedal and made it even better. One simple to install part took a great feeling pedal, and made it even smoother and faster. I was amazed at the difference. Jim Rupp (Columbus Percussion)
I am old school and generally don't go for new fangled drum and hardware gadgets. The Canopus Speed Star Bearing is very cool though, After a few minutes of easy installation, my reliable DW 5000 Pedal was magically transformed into a very smooth and fast pedal. The feel is changed greatly as there is more consistency in the back and forth foot-board and beater motion. Some might even say that it plays like butter. This seemingly small attachment, makes a big difference. Michael Tocker (Daddy's Junky Music)
I fitted the Speed Bearing to my Yamaha FP570 and it has made a remarkable difference to both the action and the response - far beyond my expectations I should add. Ian Croft (Editor of iDrum Magazine)
It is smooth with good fast action..very cool, Carmine Appice
Bicyclists, car enthusiasts, and many others enhance their stock gear with performance enhancing parts. Canopus has brought that to bass drum pedals.
The Speed Star bearing will make your stock pedal fly! Shane Kinney (Drum Center of Portsmouth)
"I SERIOUSLY recommend all drummers check out the Speed Star Bearing. I've had one on my Pearl Eliminator for the last month - the improvement is AMAZING!
The pedal, which already felt good, was instantly smoother and easier to play. I can play faster and with more control and sensitivity.
It's hard to believe such a small change, which is so simple to do, would make such a profound difference."
Andrew Dickeson Andrew Dickson
