Finally decided to do the pivots on my Rocket.
Where's the best (quickest / cheapest / most helpful) site to order them from? All pretty standard sizes, nothing quirky.
Cheers.
The Giant shop recommended Kinetic bearings:
https://www.kineticbikebearings.com/
When I get round to it I will order some frame bearings. They were good in helping me find the right ones.
Simply Bearings I tend to use.
Kinetic beatings here... Great guys and bikers too. Lots of stock and quick delivery.
Used to use Kaesae, mad as a box of frogs but meant well and despite issues was always keen to help. RIP dude.

I can't look at one of these threads without a degree of sadness.
RIP Kaesae +1.
I buy stainless steel industrial bearings on eBay, pop the seals out and pack them full of grease. Frame bearings don't need to spin fast, just smoothly.
i ordered some wheel bearings some from simly bearings last week late pm they arrived next morning
RIP kaesae +1 opened up a pack of his bearings last week with a hand written thanks and advice section. Made me sit down and think for a bit.
Cheers everyone. Job done.
Simply Bearings why pay a premium for the same thing?
What happened to Kaesae ? He helped me out big time a couple of years ago.
“Come on guys! It’s all ball bearings nowadays...”
What happened to Kaesae ?
:o(
🙁 indeed.
+1 for thinking about kaesae......
I bought some bearings last year , they were pish , can't remember where from now, but it'll come to me.....
