Yes that's right, I want to make my bike less enduro.
Do any good brands (skf, nsk, etc) make full complement bearings in the smaller sizes that MTB frames use (eg. 6902 and smaller)? Please only reply if you've actually checked the catalog and/or purchased some, enduro jokes are also acceptable. I've already checked the SKF list and their full complement options seem to start at much larger sizes than used in MTB, but I thought I'd ask before checking every other good brand.
I've decided I no longer want to spend exorbitant prices / postage costs for average bearings with rubbish seals (enduro brand bearings). However standard caged bearings really won't cut the load requirements on most frame bearings - especially not the one I'm currently servicing, so I do want a full complement option.
