Also ordered some genuine bearings when at the bike shop so could get the bits and fix it, £58 + post and VAT :@

Wish i had waited and ordered of Wemoto (didnt see them listed when i checked on my phone )

Phoned the bike shop and they said they wont cancel the order either

Your bike shop sounds like a proper rip-off.

Tapered needle rollers are probably better, and work out cheaper too! Least you have some anyway now.
