Suzue Promax SB Bearing Help

Ok i've looked everywhere. I have Suzue promax SB hubs with no bearing in them. I don't have the bearings anymore, i got the wheel from a buddy and he doesnt have them anymore. I need to know the number so i can get new bearings. I read somewhere they are 6000's. which they arent bc i bought some at the a bearing wholesaler (decen quality and cheap...$3 ea) and the OD was way to small. I dont really like most LBS around me so i dont wanna ask any favors using calipers, plus i dont really trust how good a measurement it would be (probably wouldnt matter, i know). If you have these hubs could you let me know what the bearing # is.
Thanks

You could try to contact Suzue or their US distributor, or just go down to the LBS. I'm sure they'd be happy to measure the sockets for you if you ordered some Phil bearings through them. Otherwise, take it to your local auto shop. They should be able to give you a read and possibly order some bearings for you.

Why not just fire an email over to our friends at Phil Wood?

Seems like 6001 = 12mm ID x 28mm OD x 8mm Width
