Your computer must be much better than mine - or maybe you have some inside info that I don`t.

I checked out that site and couldn`t find any grade 25 bearings in any size. ain fact the only description I could find listed against even the bicycle specific kit was `NEW`.

I did find lots of 100 5/32 ball bearings for $6, and also lots of 5 (FIVE) 5/32 ball bearings for $12 and neither had a grade posted against them so I have no idea how anyone is expected to know what they`re buying.

And based on my experiences with some Chinese suppliers who offerred to write whatever grade we wanted on some bearings - think I`ll stick to reputable sources.
