Univega DS Swinging arm bushes

[wavendene]

Hello there.
I have a 1997/8 Univega DS 800/830 that I use daily to cycle to work. Unfortunately, the swinging arm bushes are knackered. I have had no luck in sourcing any. Does anyone out there have a set (or two)?

Re:

It's possible they're not available as a spare, if it is a bush and not a bearing.

Probably not the answer you were hoping for, but I have the rigid frame version FS730, 18.5" i think, which i keep meaning to build but never get round to it, i'd let it go for £20, if you're interested. (Postage TBC) Everything should swap over easy enough. I also have some matching Rst forks and seatpost to fit.

Re:

Is there any chance of getting a photo of the pivot?

Because we have four seperate kits.. one for the DS series, one for the RAM series one for the dual action series and one for the team series...

So I need to narrow it down for you

Re:
