Can anyone help?
My headset is running rough and on dismantling the lower race is shagged.
The code on the bearing is Cane Creek HSS20130 STEEL.
I usually buy my bearings from here but cant find them!
Am I being dumb!!??
The bearing is 41mm in diameter with a 30mm bore and 7mm thick. It has a 45 degree bottom edge.
Can anyone help in finding me a replacement? Here's hoping
Cheers

AWCycles in Reading usually stock them. Albeit bearings from bike shops work out more expensive than those picked up at bearing suppliers.
you can get S-3 bearings [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=11266 ]here[/url] (they're 'steel')
i'm pretty sure they're the same size as S-8 bearings, which you can get [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=11267 ]here[/url] (they're stainless steel)
if your bearings died from rust, it might be worth getting the stainless ones, but if they just got a bit gritty, stainless won't help, get the standard cheaper ones.
41.8 x 30 x 7 45degree is the campag standard - I think they're the same bearings as BMX headsets.
Perfect. Thanks ahwiles.
Didn't think to check the obvious presuming a bearing supplier would be cheaper.
