These rollers are shot, right?

If it's not playing too bad, it may play pretty good if you lube the bearings, and clean off the rollers.

It doesn't take much gunk in the bearings to keep them from performing well.
RayB:
In my opinion, they are shot. That's alot of wear (24 years worth!)

See the reason that is my opinion is this: I have a Crystal Castles (1983). It has a 3". It was rolling rough, so I replaced the 6 bearings with brand new ones. Now it rolls smoother except when i roll the ball quickly. When I roll quickly, the ball jumps. There's too much clearance, allowing the ball to jump off the rollers.

So therefore I'm getting new rollers. You should too.
