Hi..
Does anyone know the bearing size on the Whyte G160 quadlink, a friends bike has developed some play where the seat stay connects to the quad link and were trying to find the correct size so we can get a pair on order ASAP.
These suggest it fits all Whyte and Marin bikes but thats a broad range so wanted to double check?

It's 4 normal bearings and 2 weird imperial ones....(At least on my T-130)
The weird ones were shared with Marin so this sounds right....

Hope this helps
Don't Whyte give warranty on them anyway ? I thought i had a bearing issue, so Winstanleys sent me a full new set.
Winstanleys now require the expired bearings to be returned before they split a bearing set to send you those individual bearings. They didn't have any in stock last week and quoted a 2 week lead time. Not great really.
Kinetic Bike Bearings do them, they normally have Enduro and own brand.
I changed mine with the endure bearings and sent the fouled ones back to Whyte to get another set from them for next time. The endure bearings are better quality to start with
