Flywheel roller bearing size/spec (not clutch bearing)
Posted: February 13th, 2024, 12:34 am
Hi everyone,
I’m restoring an ex-surf club Model C with a failing clutch and no PM that is currently usable. Bought for AUD60 so happy to spend a bit more for quality components.
Can someone please tell me the specs of the two (?) bearings that accompany the one-way clutch bearing inside the flywheel core and if there are better quality alternatives?
I have searched the forum to no avail and called Concept 2 in Australia who didn’t have the answer. (They do sell new Model C flywheels though for AUD155 which is my fallback if it all goes wrong.)
After taking the flywheel off, removing the circlip and measuring with my plastic calipers, I’ve come to suspect they could be R8 / R8-2RS bearings (0.5 X 1.125 X 0.3125 INCHES) but would prefer to confirm before ordering.
TIA
