Anyone know of anywhere I can get bushes at a reasonable price for my v12's?
Shops are doing them At £4.49 but there must be a manufacturer or someone that does them cheaper - I don't mind buying a few at a time to keep the cost down as they will always come in handy but all I can find are places in India...
you sure you need them, when my v12's started feeling a little shonky and squeaking after several years I just took them apart regreased them and put them back together, felt like new again.
Jonny, this is'nt a flippant answer. But how much are you hoping to save ? At four & a half quid & considering the length of time a (well maintained) set lasts I'd treat them as consumables.

rs - definite play between axle and bush that grease alone cannot cure, no wear on the axle.
Davesport - Even with fairly regular greasing I'm lucky to get 12 months out of the bushing. Running v12's on three bikes. I've seen 1/2 inch shock bushes cheaper on ebay in the US than most places over here so figured I may be able to get the same for the pedals.
If people are getting a lot more time out of theirs I'll have to get my hands dirty more often 🙄
OK point taken.
Good luck in your quest.
