Best place to buy wheel bearings
« on: 20 January 2009, 18:03:17 »

Can anyone recommend where to buy front wheel bearings from other than VX? Had bad experiences buying from eBay before, unless anyone can give me a good seller to buy from?

Who is the OE supplier for the bearings that VX uses, before vx got cheap?

Contitech ones from

You will need to call them as they dont list them in thier site but do stock them....about 30-35 quid inc

just in case, DONT be tempted with first line bearings (in hub) cadburys would be a better bet. :-(

cool, thanks for the info, just worried about buying some crap and it screwing up the brake discs as well.

Hi,
Bought me a new front hub bearing from GSF I think they have depots in most of the country.

It comes complete with the hub.  Was about £35.00 iirc
