Bearing supplier

Guys, hoping you can help.

I need to replace the bearings on my 2007 Stumpy FSR as the 6 used for the shock linkage are goosed, and maybe the others are too I just haven't looked yet.

Specialized ones are £70! For an 8 year old bike! Daylight robbery!

So who have you used?

I'm after quality that's affordable not cheap and nasty. Don't mind if it's a bike kit or individual ones I have to measure.

Thanks in advance

They do cheap. They do quality! They also do Enduro bearings which are specifically designed for suspension pivots, having extra balls to spread the load.

They're also quick!

These are the bearings you should* need:
6800 2RS MAX (6) | 6802 2RS MAX (6)

*best to double check when you remove them to be 100% correct as sometimes bearings changed within a model year.

Hope that helps
Chris

Bearingboys.

There is ebay supplier that i have used.

RS Components are likely to sell them.
NB the RS in the bearing oart indicates rubber seal, you want that type.
Does it have spherical bearkng like the epic? These are harder to find and more expensive.
