I'm assuming that he means the steerer bearings, not the shock bearings. If he means the shock
bearings, CD is the only source that makes sense -- these are very specific and if they're damaged,
he'll also need the races which he can only get from CD.
The steerer bearings are just a pressed-in cartridge bearing with seals. I usually just tap them in
/ out with a pair of thin pieces of wood and a plastic mallet. He *might* find them at a bearing
place -- but I doubt that it'd be worth his time. I'd just go to a CD dealer -- unless he has a
problem with the dealer
