Re: cantis

Hey jimihendrix
I have a LX group set, everything but the cranks in my for sale post.
If you dont have any luck with Gazza's pair let me know and I can split them out. We can work something out, not wanting much for that stuff.
If anyone wants something from here let me know as its the usual special deals for macretro's.

Hi Rob,

Bullseyes can be a bugger bearing wise but are nice and stiff and not too heavy. Bearings are no longer readily available though as they are a funny size. I machined down the axle a few thou on mine to take standard sized (and cheap) bearings. I have also got some fully ceramic bearings to try out but they are not cheap. They should last a few years of hard use though. I have ceramic bearings from the same company inside the Royce BB in my Fat Ti for endurance testing- I want to be sure they are of a good quality before selling them.

Cheers
Si

I agree with what you say about BullsEye's I put in some new bearings but Ive never ridden on them since. Im really interested in your other
suggestions


Thanks Rob
