This listing is for sets of sealed cartridge bearings & extractor/removal tools for Lapierre Full Suspension Mountain Bikes. The main picture of bearings is only a stock picture & doesn’t indicate what bearings you receive in a kit! Frame Bearings & Tools must be ordered separately, they do not come together! The picture of the bearing tools is only a generic picture. It does not show exactly what you get in the kit. I have tailored each bearing tool kit specifically for the models listed & the kit contains all the presses & extractors you need along with the handles to professionally remove & install your frame bearings. For further information about the tools please see the link below. For Bearing Extraction & Installation Tools see my listing below. If you would like to follow a generic tutorial of How To Fit Pivot Bearings visit my website at the link below. Visit my YouTube Channel at the link below for my’How To’ videos. The tools also come with a printed instruction sheet on how to use them. Please Note : These kits contain the Pivot Bearings Only. They do not contain any washers, bushes or other hardware. They don’t contain the articulate bush for the rear dropouts. These can be bought separately in the menu. If you look after your frame pivots & replace the bearings regularly you shouldn’t need to replace your other washers & hardware. Keep everything well greased, avoid pressure washing at all costs & avoid using solvent based sprays & lubricants around your bearings, as these dissolve the grease in the bearings! Chrome Steel (ABEC 1). Hardened Chromium Steel balls in a steel cage with a generous grease fill. Looked after with regular greasing & avoid pressure washers & solvent cleaners they will last well in normal off road riding conditions. MAX Full Compliment (ABEC 3). These are capable of withstanding much higher loadings than the standard caged roller bearings above. Compared to bearings with cages, full compliment bearings have an increased load capacity of around 40% or more. This type of bearing is highly suited to suspension pivots on mountain bikes, where there is a higher load and a lower rotation rate. The whole point of MAX Full compliment bearings is that more balls allow for greater strength in lower rotation, high load applications. Most top end bikes come with these fitted as standard & are designed for hard riding. We do a daily postal drop Mon-Fri. Goods ordered after 2pm will be posted the following day.
