They don't give more "power". They do make it easier to push the pedal and are better in wet conditions and do not fade from heat very much. You won't stop any faster normally. Not worth it in your case. Won't hurt anything if you have the money. The tapered roller bearings are WAY cheaper to replace than the old ball bearings. So when the bearings need replaced, it's cheaper to by the front roller bearing kit.
Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it. - William Penn
