Taking out the ball bearings will also take out the clickiness of the turning since the balls do that. The ball bearings are there so the sides will click into place and it prevents maligning the sides. After taking them out though, you might get mis-alignments and it might lock up more. I have a mefferts pyraminx and I took out the ball bearings and I liked it more. The turning is very smooth and has no clickiness.
If I don't feel lazy later today I'll edit my post to tell you how to take the ball bearings out. Btw Parity, you spelled "too" wrong
. How did it make it worse?
EDIT: I'm done drinking my orange juice so I'll tell you how to take out the ball bearings if you want to. I'm not responsible for damaging your puzzle...
1. Get a flathead screwdriver or something similar.
2. Pop a piece out of your pyraminx and find one of the ball bearings. There's a spring behind the ball which we're going to use to take it out.
3. Press down firmly on the part where the ball is. There might also be a plastic part surrounding the ball and you should press on that with your screwdriver. Release your pressure and the plastic part should pop up because of the spring behind the plastic. Pry out the plastic part and take out the ball and the spring. When you are pressing down on the plastic part, you might damage the plastic.
Another way: instead of pressing down, you can simply try prying out the plastic part with your screwdriver.
4. Repeat 2 and 3 until all the ball bearings are out. KEEP THE BALL BEARINGS IN CASE YOU WANT TO PUT THEM BACK IN THE PUZZLE.
EDIT2: +1 for what Ryan said, but the pyraminx I had was like almost broken and it was popping way too much and I think the ball bearings were effecting it.
