You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
please help, i need to change the main pivot (bb) bearings and bushes sharpish after my trip to ppds last week. the rest of the bearings are fine, but as a precaution i placed an order for the last remaining full bearing/ bush set through on-one on monday, but then got an email saying that although the computer says they have a set in stock - they can't find it and don't know when they're getting more stock.
my problem is that i'm booked in at antur on the 21st, then due to go to molini for a week a few days later.
i've stripped the bearings, but the numbers are illegible. if someone could tell me the bearing number for the main pivot bearings, i could get a set elsewhere in the short term to see me through, until i get either more news or the full set from on-one.
...and yes, i'll be asking on-one themselves for the details, but although i've not had issues with communication from them in the past, knowing my luck they'll have all gone on holiday!
cheers, stan.

thanks for the reply, but the problem isn't where to get them, it's which ones to get. i need the numbers.
i have a good bearing supplier in morley.
Out of interest how long did your bearings last?
had the frame since july last year and have rode it as my main bike pretty much since then, including:
3 foreign trips (sierra nevada, tenerife and alps)
3 scottish long weekends
3 welsh long weekends
numerous local trail centre trips (dalby, gisburn, stainburn, lee quarry, etc.)
plus all my mid week night rides and local weekend rides.
so can't really complain.
