Fresh Goodies - GTECHNIQ Bike Wash & Specialized Creo 2 Lower Headset Bearing


I have been intrigued by this range of bike clean products from GTECHNIQ as I have used there car products and are really good quality. When we were away Big Bear Bikes in Pickering had a small range of their clean products and I picked the bike wash. I will be trying it out from now and compare it to my normal shampoo I use. RRP £9.75 and I paid £9.75. 




A few weeks ago I noticed the bottom headset bearing on my Creo 2 was starting to feel dry / rough so was on the look out for a new one. I assumed that it was the same bearing size as in my Creo 1's but I was wrong. I looked around for a better quality one but could not find a really good quality one so opted for the cheapo version instead. The part number from Specialized is S182500006 rrp £17.90. The size is 47.8 x 56.8 x 6.5 - 45/45. I paid £16.55 inc 48hr p&p from Aire Velo Bearings (Ebay). More on this when I come to swap them over.
