It is very easy to replace the bushings with bearings. most hobby shops have 5x8x2.5 bearings (flanged) in stock so all you have to do is drill out the hole in the brake plate to 8mm and put the bearings in and away you go. I have found that using a uni-bit or step bit allows you to make the bearing almost a press fit in the carbon fiber, check fitment often. Its about a 15min job and well worth it. No more brake probs.
