alexp5 Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 I have a set of Beet Racing Japan rearsets grafted onto the 'thingy' and the gearchange has more slop than Kerry Katona's gusset. It runs on teeeny tiny needle bearings. They fecked methinks. Anyone know who imports or deals with them in the U of K??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy J Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Do the bearings have a number stamped on them? You may be lucky and find that they are a standard size bearing. Go to a local bearing supplier and they may be able to help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tootall Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Take some photos and measurements and I'll see if they're the same dimensions as any from my suppliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexp5 Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Ok. I'm a twat. They don't run on bearings and i have no idea why I thought they did, other than I am a twat. Here is the offending article... Now then, there is a groove machined inside the lever pivot. Would I be right in thinking there should be an o-ring or summat in here? That would probably eliminate most of the play although there seems to be a lot of wear on the mating surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
