Hi,
I need to replace the swing arm bearings on my canyon nerve ES 5.0 (german brand)

Can anyone tell me how to find out which ones to get, I probaby could get them from canyon in germany but it would probably take ages and they would probably charge me through the nose and charge loads of postage.

I get the impression they are a fairly standard part.
It would seem from measuring that the ID is 7.8mm, and the OD is 22.3mm.
any help much appreciated.

p.s. does anybody else have a canyon? since I got mine i've only ever seen one other canyon, and that was a roadie on the brian robinson sportive last weekend.

Good to hear from another Canyon owner!!! Was beginning to think i was alone!!! Sorry cant help with the bearing issue, but the customer service is pretty good at Canyon. You're right though, ya dont see many of them out on the trails do ya? God knows why, cuz they're wicked VFM, and ride amazingly well. Here's mine... its a Nerve ES 6.0

Taken last year in Verbier... It was in its element there!! Saw loads of retro Canyon hardtails over there in switzerland. Very nice.
Ride on, Canyon brother. Anyone else got one????
Post a piccie if so!

Spectral AX9 here. Beautifully stiff carbon frame. Great value as you say.
