Still dont see what holds bearing on lower tube from factory.. Mine keeps sliding down .Right now there a zip tie keeping it up. Pretty sure factory didnt design it that way. The search continues.

Suppose if it were spotlessly clean and still nothing you might assume it's pressed? Wonder if it could be designed to slip in a collision.
