I need a upper jockey wheel bolt for sram Eagle mech, can anyone tell me the part number or non branded replacements please if there are any?
Asking for a friend whose managed to round it off 😉
WTF. Literally just did the same to an Eagle upper jockey wheel about 15 minutes ago whilst trying to remove it to grease the regularly seized bearings.
Lol great (ham-fisted) minds eh!?
Any ideas or luck finding replacement?
Don't the sram jockey wheels come with new bolts ??
Great spot teeth grinder!!!
No they dont come with the bolts plus I don't run sram jockeys cos they are absolute shite
I have a couple of spare bolts, I can post one out to you if that's easier?
Eagle bearings are terrible. I regreased mine a coupe of times but it only lasts a couple of weeks in winter. I eventually gave up, knocked the original bearing out and replaced it with an SKF made 626-2RS. It’s lasted two years so far without needing attention.
