Hi Folks
Noticed a few old threads on this but nothing recently. Does anyone know where I can get new headset bearings for a Lefty? All bikeshops I've tried seem to be sold out. The part is HD169 or B543 2RS MAX if you look on the manufacturers websites (Enduro).
Cheers

Nothing obviously listed there on Betd that I can see, as their a really weird sizing, I was told by a bearing suppier there more "aircraft" sized bearing than anything they'd normally supply.
CRC used to sell em but didn't last time I checked.

So Tony @ Thumbprint tuning supplied me my last set £12.50 each (probably some P&P too - I had my lefty serviced @ the same time) if that helps, give him a ring & ask (rather than email).
But Noah's arc or any Cannondale dealer should be able to help really.

For all things cannondale its worth looking at [url=www.cannondale-parts.de/]Dr Cannondale.[/url]

I've used them for bearings and other bits and pieces in the past and have always had good service off them.

Disco Stu, did think to mention them, but I thought it's not very clear on their site as to whether you get one or two bearing for your 19euro's.

take another look at the betd website, the bearing number you listed is there

B-543 2rs Max

5 items up from the bottom....or 2nd calling Tony to see if he has some in stock.

you are indeed correct, I daftly expected it to mention "cannondale" in the bearing description.

Have you tried the Edinburgh Bike Co Op site?

Unfortunately Edinburgh co-op are out of stock at the moment - they have them on order. I've left a message for Tony at Thumbprint tuning.
Cheers
