Unless you have a LX200 with a mirror lock that is . Suprised Celestron have not done something similar. Actually I am suprised they all don't just bite the bullet and put the primary on a roller bearing setup similar to the crayfords . Would have to be a whole lot better then sliding it up and down a greased plain bearing.
