most stuff deteriorates with age   :o, especially if not re-greased on a mechanical part for example.

do you have to put oil in ur car engine? do bears shit in the woods  :LolLolLolLol:


when i removed the original bearings from mine, they were semi-sealed? ie: a seal on the outside but not on the inside.
but not sure if they were original.

you can get them from any decent bearings shop. 10mm by 9mm thick take the measuremens of the interal diameter , external diameter, and width. they are the same as mini moto berings too.

problem is, at 9 quid a pair, plus if your bearings are knackerd, your spindles may well be corroded, and they need to be a nice flush fit, otherwise they wobble, is it cheaper to buy a new set of zytecs...
