That's it.. the last bearing has now been sold. That makes a total of 200 of them sent worldwide. Some have been bought for immediate use for bikes that have been off the road for a while because of bearing failure. Others were bought as spares for future use, with several people lucky enough to have more than one of these lovely bikes stockpiling them!! It's a nice thought that bikes which have sat in barns etc, unused because of this bearing, are now out on the road
If you find you need/want one of these bearings, do e-mail me anyway. If enough people want them, I will try and get some more made. As usual, I can't guarantee they'll do it but I'd at least try, rather than see anyone stuck.

You're welcome! I'm pleased it arrived OK and that you're happy. You will be when you need that bearing! Keep it somewhere safe!

Hi James, I just got the bearing and the UK Gold. Thanks for sending this off to me and I'm looking forward to trying the UK Gold and the bearing will stay in my unobtanium box till needed.
Much appreciated!

You're welcome! Spray the UK Gold onto dry oil/grease etc.... don't wet the surface first or use another cleaner first or whaetever. The product bonds with oil/grease (same principle as ordinary soap) and water gets in the way of this process. So just spray on, scrub in if required, leave to work, then rinse off with lots of water. Usually, UK Gold takes everything off first time but if you need to reapply, let the surface dry again before using product again..
Neat product, or high strengths, will degrease your hands and remove natural oils,leaving your hands dry and sore, so it's best to use rubber gloves when applying it.
Have fun......
