I need to replace the 3 Frame Grommets on my Whyte after making a bit of a mess of all 3 of them. Does anyone know where I can get these from? Are they frame specific?

I have looked and I can see they sell them on CRC for Vitus bikes and they look the same but im guessing they wont fit.

I have emailed Whyte to ask for there support but wondering if anyone knows a source or if any others would fit?

I found my local Whyte Dealer, Banjo Cycles in Newbury very helpful and cheap for mech hangers recently, could be worth a call

Whyte sent me a pack of them FOC when I enquired about them.

Did you just contact Whyte or ATB?

Your nearest Whyte dealer might have a big plastic selection box of cable guides and grommets. I know mine has.

Just make sure you lube them up before you try to force them in and rip them.

Despite ringing Whyte (well ATB), not a great result from this suprising really as they were really helpful last time i had an issue with a seatclamp.

I have paid 12quid from my nearest Whyte dealer nearly 40miles away and got grommets that dont fit my frame 🙁

I have realised what i am after is the grommet blanking plates, i know this is a long shot and im going to try Whyte again tomorrow but does anyone have any spare blank Whyte G150 frame grommets?

I'm sure I've seen them on eBay for about £5.

Astura, I have a few grommets lying around, will take a look later, is it double or single blanking grommets?
