bearmach vcu bearings

roccotune · Apr 28, 2013

Hi guys,

Original gnk bearings seem to cost at least 45-50 each now and I know from experience how bad Brit part ones are but as I am on a budget could bearmach bearings be an option?

Has anyone use the bearmach VCU bearings?

Don't know about the bearings but that supplier doesn't have the best rep on here.

Can't really be tomuch of a problem to make these at a keen price just a case of getting the right manufacture involved. Hopefully some one has used these?

Cheers

You could try sending Austen (Bell Engineering) a PM and see what he recommends.

I guess it all comes down to how many times a year you want to change the bearings. Go for cheap and you'll get what you pay for. GKN bearings with the FAG race are the way to go - expensive, yeah, but they'll last way longer.

All very true guys, but these seem new on the market and there is no reason why that they could not be made well and at a keen price.

Any one risked it yet?

If your budget is that tight,why dont you remove the rear prop and run it in 2wd ?

Why does everyone always think that Ebay is cheaper than everywhere else.

It is worth checking the many on line suppliers, took me less than a minute and look what I found

Lots of cowboys on ebay, even registered limited businesses. They seem to think if they are on ebay then after 45 days warranties don't matter.
