Fairly specific question and irrelevant to 99.999999% of the population I should imagine.
But if you are a Liteville 301 owner with in in depth knowledge of the associated pivots then…..
….after ordering the bearing set from BikeWright and fitting all of the ones that matched why am I left with 2 of the smaller bearings unused and nothing that will fit in the top tube pivot.
Also why does this pivot not move freely without the leverage of the linkages – is it because it is in fact a bushing not a bearing and as I read somewhere.
Is this stiffness normal – does the pivot not need replacing?
…and why is Liteville using a bush instead of a bearing at this one point and nowhere else???
So many questions…
Anyone have any answers??
