As per title I have an Ambrosio rear track hub that needs new bearings. The ones in there are stamped 6000LU but I can't find these online. Anyone know if 60002RS are the same and what does the LU mean?

Cheers

The 6000 is the size part, the end bit is what type of seal it has, I have no idea what LU stands for but 2RS means the bearings have 2 rubber seals, one each side. 60002RS is what you will want.

Just done a bit of a search and LU means the bearings only have one rubber seal. That being the case should I get new bearings with only one seal or will 2 be fine?

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
