Where Can I Find Bearings for an Antique Tricycle?
December 17th, 2009
Q: Do you know where I can find bearings for a Gendron Pioneer tricycle?
A: Providing that you still have the dust caps or covers and they are not damaged, any loose bearings that are the correct size will work fine. You can repack the hubs using the loose bearings and an ample amount of grease. If the dust covers are still there, just go to your local hardware store and take one of the old bearings to make sure you get the same size. Having the bearing casing is not a necessity. If you feel that it is for some reason, you can probably find some of the same size bearings with casings from antique bicycle collector sites or possibly your local bicycle shop.
