Hi
I've just gone to change my main pivot bearings on my Butcher and the bearings came out just using my fingers and the new ones almost dropped in too is this right??
I was expecting to have to press them in
Any replies warmly welcome

No this isn't right .chances are old bearings were that seized they've ended up spinning inside the frame making the hole bigger .hence new bearings just push in.
Thanks Big-Bud so where do I stand is there anything I can do?
loctite bearing fit. this is what its for.
Loctite 638 for loose fit bearings.
Got some in the garage so I've took them out slapped some in leave it 24 hour and see
Thanks everyone much appreciated
Big thanks to all, took the Butcher out after the loctite had had 24 hours and after 4 hours of abuse there's no play at all - the biking gods are indeed kind
