Bearings for CMA wheels

#1 PostAuthor: Fred the Zed » Wed Feb 26, 2014 8:01 pm

Hi

I have a set of CMAs for my Z1R, that need refurbishing. I'll change the bearings and dust seal(s) as part of the process for reliability's sake, but I'm unsure of the sizes. Anyone done this before who can recommend a supplier?

If no's not visible measure
OD ID and thickness then look it up on a bearing comparison site

I have a book if ya get stuck I'll look it up at work and give you the skf equivalent bearing Generally your better off with sealed type

I get all mine from here but then it is local.
They also supply bearings by application ie. for a given bike so may be worth a call.

i got mine off ebay. Go for quality though! If you cant see the size on the bearing then measure outer diameter, inner diameter and width. I have CMA wheels so will try and find the receipt for all the bearings and get the sizes off that.

You can pick how much you want to spend and search by sizes, quick turnaround as well.
