i know i can order them online or go to a bearing manufacturing place and pick em up but......

does any one know of your genral store kinda place thats likely to be open on a sunday that sells such things..

i need one for the harris rearsets gear selector side..

checked places like wicks n b & Q online, but been trying to rack my brains what kinda major store might stock such a thing..

sorry didnt realise same link, our local spares places sometimes do items like this, could try your local independent or the likes GermanFrenchandSwedish/CAF

You will struggle to get them anywhere at a decent cost (my local Swan bearings place has to order them, and they wanted Â£16 each

)

I have bought some from here. The are good quality and they deliver quickly (like next day).

yeah i found out today that i would be hard pushed finding them on a sunday any where.. i could have paid for a call out for Â£25 then the bearing on top...

but found lots of places to order off the net n ebay and the left hand thread male 6mm one i need can get for like Â£3..
was just keen to get it today so i could fit the rearsets today as i wont get chance to mess with the bike for 2 or 3 weeks now

so will have to save it for my excuse to get away from the queens speech.

Were you aware they sell furniture too? ;) And its almost as cheap as the meatballs.

Meatballs and chips smothered in tons of black pepper, YUMMY!!!

Pear Cider is nice, have you tried Swedish Vodka? the one made from Blackcurrants is the mutts nutts and i hate Blackcurrant normally. Went out to Sweden for the WRC a year or so ago and got leathered on it quite regularly, lovely stuff. You have to drink Vodka etc out there at Â£9+ a pint for beer.

I've tried Absolut Vodka , i think it's Swedish , i havn't tried any of the flavours though

I tried MD20/20 years ago..it's flavoured

Some real good deals on with drink right now ,they're all doing them depending what you're buying ---Tesco ,Morrisons ,Asda all good , Sainsburys still friggin expensive
