I'm struggling to find out what Pivot bearings I need for my GF. Does anyone know what I need, or how I can tell what I need if I take them out of the frame?

My LBS just said approx £150 to replace, which I thought was very excessive for what I thought was a single pivot bike!

some useful advice re number of bearings and fitting in the description too. (I've no experience of this seller).

I'd do the job myself, personally.

I used to ride a cake, they're not uncommon bearings, i went to my local bearing shop (straitline in hemel hempstead) they have them in. You can do it yourself, you just loctite them in or it's a simple job for a competent mechanic
