• Correct bearings for any bike frame bearing with the number 688 2RS

Due to the work required to change the bearings we generally recommend the stainless steel bearing for the majority of applications 

Frame bearing installation instructions

• Ensure that the frame is clean and Inspect for wear and corrosion
• Put a small amount of grease on the rubber seal of the bearing keeping in mind that if there is too much grease dirt will accumulate. A small amount of grease can be put on the frame before pressing the bearing in but is not required.
• Bearings should be pressed in using a suitable press tool. Incorrect installation can damage the bearing
• Before riding the bicycle, check that there is no play or looseness in frame bearing bolts
• If you feel any looseness or ‘play’ in the bearings, the frame bearings should be inspected/replaced. 
• Do not wash directly with high-pressure jets of water. 
• For maximum performance it is required to lubricate and periodically inspect/clean your bottom bracket bearings.

Please note that any bearings that have opened out of the packaging cannot be returned as they cannot be resold. Dimensions of the bearings are shown in the pictures and it is your responsibility to measure before ordering
