Where do people go for there bearings? I normally type the bearing code into eBay and pick from there for a decent price, but turns out that this time, they're quite pricey :?
I'm after some 6910-2RS to sort out my shakey rear end (active brake pivot bearings on my trek fuel ex). I wouldn't mind some SKF bearings, but at £90 for 2, it's not worth it
I don't want cheapness, I want reasonable price-ness. I can't warrant spending more on bearings on my bicycle than the cost of wheel bearings for my car
Kaesae / Katec's bearings are very good. Outlast stock Hopes many times and seem to be the most durable ones I've used (Chilterns winter SS and loaded BP use on same wheels).

So I've bought a full kit for my trek for a smidge more than it seems for buying just the specific 2 bearings I was after - 2 x recommendations on here swung it for me. Can't hurt to have spares, especially as the ones in the evo link are potentially the worlds cheapest bearings ever as I had to replace them when I had very little money
