funnyman Posted December 2, 2018 Share Anyone know where to get these in SA... Bearings are fine- only the bushings are finished- seen an import from US for R700..excluding shipping. Must be able able to get somewhere... or are we still that far behind??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V18 Posted December 2, 2018 Share About a year and a half back I cracked my bushing on my right pedal. Asked my brother to order me some sexy ones from these guys https://www.igus.com/info/plain-bearings-full-suspension-mountain-bike. Pressed them in carefully. Spinning unbelievably smooth despite not servicing my vaults ONCE since putting them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V18 Posted December 2, 2018 Share On that note. I'd like to replace all possible pivots with bushings as an experiment. Maybe make use of some sacrificial alu spacers in case I split one. Don't want to damage my frame for the sake of curiosity (says the guy that ran continental tyres for a day and a half) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
