A complete steering head bearing set for the Sur-Ron Light Bee and Segway X260. Upper and lower included — you replace the whole assembly, not half of it.
Steering bearings are a wear item. Replace them when play appears, and always when fitting a new fork — old bearings under a new fork is wasted work you will redo within a month.
When to replace them
| Symptom | What it means |
|---|---|
| Knock under braking, felt through the bars | Play in the lower bearing — the most common sign |
| Bars fall into centre at low speed | Indented races |
| Notchy or stiff steering | Corrosion or no grease |
| Play when you rock the fork fore and aft | Worn or loose set |
| Fitting a new fork or triple clamp | Replace preventively — it is already apart |
What you get
You do not hammer the lower race in — it cracks or goes in crooked and the new bearing is scrap. The bearing puller and press kit is the first tile below.
Before you order
- Fits the Sur-Ron Light Bee — LBX, LBS and L1E — and the Segway X260.
- Does NOT fit Talaria or E-Ride Pro.
- A puller or press is required — a hammer ruins the race.
- While you are in there, check the swingarm bushings; similar teardown.
Frequently asked
Does it fit the Sur-Ron LBX?
Yes. The LBX is the same machine as the Light Bee — this set fits with no modification.
Does it fit Talaria or E-Ride Pro?
No. Those models use a different head tube.
Do I have to replace bearings when fitting a new fork?
You do not have to, but it almost always pays. The head tube is already apart, labour is zero, and an old bearing under a new fork starts knocking within a few rides.
What bearings are they, what are the dimensions?
The maker does not state part numbers and we do not guess. It is a set made for the Light Bee, not a universal kit.
