Mavic Elite wheel bearings

[hagar]

What is the availability of these bearings ??? I think mine are tired as yesterday and speed over 35kmph and the wheels were screaming like stuffed pigs the hubbers riding with me got such a skrik they almost came off their bikes

 

why I ask is would i be able to source them in CT and where would i get them.

 

I know our local LBS would not stock them but i would like to speed up the process and get them couried to me and have them put the new ones in.

 

Any suggestions ????

thanks mud dee you would not perhaps have the part number or would i have to take the wheels to them.

 

we have a bearing man here locally in Saldanha can you believe that

No idea..but they are normally very clued up.

[hagar]

thanks will give them a try !!!

ok ok i am back again my new bearings fitted while I waited  Frankia Fietse in Vredenburg you guys are the best my baby did not have to sleep in a strange place  we will see how she rolls this afternoon

 

so whilst i was hanging around the bike shop this guy rocks up with this machine he payed R150 for . he tells me it was scrap and he had the sign especially made for the bike at a sign shop. He is as proud of his bike as any one of us . tells me he rides her the whole weekend just cruising around.

 

what a interesting guy to speak to he works at the local abbitoir and says we are eating far too much meat

she is back to her old self again and at 50kmph runs as smooth as ever. New bearings did the trick . and Hagar is again a happie chappie

 

its not nice knowing there is something wrong with your bike you just want it fixed "asap".(sorry for the abbreviations WH)
