Does anyone know of any good bearing suppliers? I'm looking for about 10 60012RS bearings, SKF/INA or FAG branded. All the usual places I look want silly money  |

Unfortunately unless you can find something common that uses that bearing it will be expensive. Have you tried simplybearings?

I haven't got a specific recommendation but Google shopping seems to be pretty successful. I didn't look at the manufacturers but it has to be worth a trawl  |

It's a common bearing. My application is for Hope XC Mountain Bike hubs.
It's just a bit daft when you try an order 6 and it's about £25!
I just didn't know if you guys had a super secret bearing suppliers that might make the cost a bit better.
I was hoping to get it under £20. (skint you see)

(skint you see) £25 for 6 sounds pretty good to me for SKF gear. |

Fair enough. I'll strip down my hubs/freehub and see just how many I actually need. |

Fair enough. I'll strip down my hubs/freehub and see just how many I actually need. You'll need four, two in the main hub body & two in the freehub itself, but the inner one site behind a circlip, so don't try & press it out until you've taken that out. Also watch for the spacer in the freehub body & between the freehub & main hub body as they're different sizes. |

It was rebuilt not long ago, but it's started dragging. |

Usually two if it was done not long ago, the inside one in the freehub body & the drive side in the main hub body.
They always seem to get water in there down past the seal & wreck those before the outer pair.
