all bearings are 'ABEC's'
the ABEC rating just defines the tolerances that the bearings are made to, whatever they are made from.
you can get them easily enough on EBAY but dont get anything higher than an ABEC5 rated bearing. The ABEC 7'S that you can get are too tight and counter productive in a reel imho.
Before you do change them, have you cleaned out the original bearings? soak them in petrol for ten minutes, let them dry and then add just the slightest drop of oil. too much oil will slow it down too much and probably distribute oil all over the insode of the reel and magnify the braking effect.
They SHOULD then run freely. if they dont then take the reel back to the supplier and change it
