To keep an orange theme going i purchased a pair of orange jockey wheel.

What shoukd have been a 5 min job turned into half hour job.

The cause being the bearing was not quite central so when fitted and bolt done up, the jockey wheels wouldnt turn.

Using a socket a small tap with a hammer to push the bearing in, were talking maybe 0.2 mm, fixed it but it took me 1/2 hour to figure wtf is going in.
 
Re:

Generic ebay ones or something that should be of high quality (any links)

Always the quick jobs that take awhile
 
Re:

Off ebay but not aest.

I like the bling and the small weight saving but realise sealed bearing need maintenance especially after riding in ths wet.
