Thanks for the replies. Haven't heard any particurlalry bad thing about them but as ed' says too I have seen them under various names - why would they use an odd bearing size though (sounds like maybe a Condor 'excuse'?) - any decent bearing suppliers should be able to get a set of bearings to you next day...
Another **Q **regarding fixed hubs - (never used them before):
I have only had a SS MTB before with a cassette hub so chainline was simple to fettle perfectly - with a lockring fixed hub is there any leeway to add spacing washers? Does the lockring have to butt up against the cog? - presumably the cog then has to sit slightly proud of its thread?
