I've looked everywhere I can think of for a set of these and can't find them.
I want to replace the ones in my 105 with these because of the bearings in them.
I've seen the ones that can be purchased that are alluminum, but I don't want the sound of them clicking with my chain.
Does anyone know of a source for the dura ace jocky wheels, or any with real bearings in them that are not alluminum?
TIA,
Bryan

First off, never use those aluminum pulleys on the upper pulley. That pulley needs to have lateral movement and the aluminum ones don't. Second, my Dura-Ace pulleys just have a plastic bushing, not a bearing. I think they're all like that, though I haven't looked at the latest 10sp ones.

I bought some Ultegra jockey wheels from an eBay shop. I don't know if there's a difference from the Ultegra ones to Dura-Ace, but I know that my 105's had nasty metal bushes which were really sloppy and the Ultegra's have ceramic bushes which instantly improved my shifts.
Here's where I got them:

My Dura Ace 9 pulleys have sealed bearings, upper and lower (with play in the upper due to aluminum spacers). You should be fine if you find them.
