Bearing size

#1 Post by cleverusername »

I have a sprint bearing marked 020 u/s. Does that mean I need 020 oversized replacements?

Yes. Sometimes they are known as 'undersize' but it is to fit the undersize big end or main bearing that has been reground. The bearings are in fact 'oversize' to take up the material that was taken off in the regrind.
