Just get the Air bearings that I suggested. You will see a big improvement. Take the old ones out, put the new ones in, and go fishing, simple as that but you will be making longer casts with the Air bearings. The Hedgehog web site is easy to navigate through. Just put in the reel you are changing the bearings in and it will give you several suggestions.

Replaced the bearings in several of my Curados with the air bearings. Love them. Like previously mentioned, cheaper than other brands and perform flawlessly.

Got ceramic bearings, 3x10x4, during the Classic Expo from the Spool speed guy and work great so far on Shimano Caenan.
Should be the same size for Curado E7.
Slide right, coming in .... Fish On!

I swapped to ZPI bearings in all my high end reels. But I use other hybrid ceramics in mid-priced reels. ZPIs require regular maintenance, however.
