Hub Bearings, Seals, etc.

Where to get seals and hub bearings from? I was wondering whether normal bearing retailers sell hub bearings and seals? Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Preferably not a Kwaka dealer though please.

cheers

Pull the bearing out, and get the code off it. then jump on here and order it!

Nachi make stuff for bikes, and a lot of the bearings are common size.

Or locally in Maidstone here.......http://www.conbear.com/

bought gpx750 front wheel bearings for $7.50 per-side from the parts counter at sysney cit cycles, definately was a bit surprised as i was expecting 15-30/side.

I use the local CBC and the guy takes one look at the old bearing and goes and gets the right size I need.
Sometimes the part is OEM unique and they can't do, but they have it more than not.
