Hayes (Manitou in one of the menu options) tech support is awesome, I'm pretty sure they can sell you a single piece like that. If you have to leave a message they will actually call you back too.

Thanks, I will try that. I tried calling Trident, who is a Manitou Distributor. No shops in my area deal with them. The only people willing to help me out was this guy at a Surf shop around here that deals with them, but its not for sure. Trident was like ya we defenilty have those, but you have to be a shop. And Manitou said the same thing, but nobody deals with them. Why is it so difficult to get a part like this in this day in age.

Go to your local machine parts company with the old bushing in hand. In the states we have Grainger and a host of others. Garlock is one company who makes off the shelf DU bushings. You should be able to find this replacement easily if the part is an off-the shelf item, which it should be.

I would still go this route:

That sucks, they always deal directly with me but my bike team has a Hayes account number. I guess I figured they would help anyone for such a little part. If you were a Denver local I'd help ya out.

Thanks man, im still not having much luck with this. However I now know the Dimensions are 12.4mm wide. OD is 14mm. ID is 12mm.

I always thought the inner part of the Bushing had some kind of coating on it?

what's wrong with the one from ebay? you won't find them cheaper anywhere else.

Are they the right size?
