Bought a new frameset on here but the bearings are shot and i'm having trouble sourcing the ones i need!
Any help would be much appreciated.

The headset is a 1" Tange Techno Glide DL...
20 ball bearings, caged.

Can't view the link.

Without looking, a wild guess that it runs the normal open cage bearings which pretty much any bike shop will sell, halfords even give you a little tube of grease in the packet.
Think it was £3 in halfords for a pair, should be similar in bike shops maybe cheaper but without the grease.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
