Any one know if this will fit my bike 2011 genesiscore 40? I've never replaced one before

But I'm armed with the tools and a youtube video, so shouldn't be too much hassle. Just need to confirm that is correct for my bike?

It should fit ok, just make sure you fit the spacers in the same place as the old ones.
As long as you've got the correct cup spanner and preload adjuster it's a piece of piss to do...

Oh.. And one of the cups is a reverse thread.. There's some arrows on the cups to tell you which one..
And don't over tighten the preload cap as it wears the bearing out quicker, just nip it up..
