Hey all,

I bought an old Reign 3 '05 last year and finally got round to rebuilding it.

When I took apart the rear suspension, the upper bearing (i think its called the seatstay pivot, refer to pic) both just fell in pieces. Not sure if that what those bearings are meant to do but never seen that before.

I have bearings for the rest of the suspension set up but need to replace these smaller ones.

Does any one know the model or specs of the bearings i need to get?

Any help would be appreciated.

I had a 2007 Reign and had to replace the same bearings you mention Twice. Used DIY MTB.com They have the full bearing kit. Price list on there website. Use Full compliment Bearings for Suspension Pivots not ones with cages in them. Use a torque wrench and Loctite as the torque specs are not very high as I remember.

Just email Duncan and tell him the year, make and model. He'll send you up a full bearing kit. Easy
