Richard Farrant Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 Richard do you need some from over here, happy to help if needed. Hi Robin, At present the situation in N.America is that no STD size Main bearings are available from suppliers. Currently looking closer to home and possibly Europe to see if there is anything about, otherwise it means grinding the crank to suit available sizes, which is an expensive option. Will see what replies come in. regards, Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
