Are there any more reasonbly priced pivot kits for Boardman full suspension bikes, maybe from china? The genuine kit is about £100.
Say... That's a nice bike..

    Doubt it. Chinese like mass production and big numbers.

    Bearings? If so find remove old ones and get some new ones from local supplier, numbers should be on old bearings.

    Bearings or pivots?
    If it's just bearings then push out the old ones, read off the numbers and order some from a website like simplybearings.co.uk
    I'd recommend paying for a quality brand like NSK, SKF or Koyo. The best bearings are MAXX or Enduro which are specifically designed for part turn use (don't use as wheel bearings).
