if you can open the motor, it takes a 5x16 bearing

While the bearings are out, would it be wise to make the swicth to ceramic bearings?

Well it ended up being a real odd ball bearing 5x14x5, I had to find out by get my brothers calipers and cross referencing the tiny ass model number stamped in the metal shield. I have received and installed the bearing so that is the size that fits. Looks like Castle may have switched bearing sizes on these?

They apparently upgraded to larger bearings because I just replaced the front bearing on a 5700 and it was 5x11x5.
I thought about replacing them with ceramics myself. A fellow racer was trying to tell me that they are more susceptible to dirt though. I have a hard time believing that.

Difference?
How do you tell the difference? New/old without opening it.
