As anyone had a go at replacing the dropout horst link bearings on specialized frames?
Ive a 2010 enduro with a load of play in the drive side dropout bearing. I've bought the replacement bearings, I just need to extract the current ones. I was planning on just bashing them out but ive found they cant be bashed through as theres a internal lip so that ideas out the window.
Ive found a cheapish bearing puller on the bay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Inner-Bea ... 3a7cb27812
Which goes from 10mm to 32mm internal diameter bearings - does anyone know what size internal diameter spesh use on their dropout bearings without me taking the thing to bits to find out.
I wont get chance until next week to take it to bits to find out but i wouldn't mind buying the kit i need now.
Many thanks

Can you tap it out from the inside if you get a slim tool in between the two bearings?0
