I took one down to the bearing shop and they said that they cant get anything like that with an extended race

what i want to know is does anyone know of any place that can get them?
or does anyone have the same bearings lying around somewhere that they are not using?

try http://www.shockcraft.co.nz/ as they are the NZ importers of enduro bearings and should have them in stock at a good price. plus they are easy to deal with.

You probably want to look at getting a couple of sets of bearings then, replace them about halfway through the season and again at the end Wink

You could Go to the bearing shop and get the bearings for the standard size and Get some Spacers Made up from your local Engineering workshop. (Do you have any friends that do machining?) Double Thumbs Up

that sounds like a bit of work....
and you would only be running a standard bearing.

where as the enduro bears are a MAX (more balls) type that are ment for povits.and i think there are priced rather well as dougal was saying that he was trying to keep the bearings around $10 each.

Yes enduro max bearings are the way to go for your pivot bearings! I have just had My Intense 6.6 apart It,s running the Enduro Max bearings and has ali spacers so you do not need to buy special bearings Big Grin
