Any car accessory place, Halfords, any of the bike shops etc etc.

I got some from Autoparts in Inverurie a week or so ago when i did the pads on my landy...15p each if I remember.

Lock a diver in a sealed room with 3 shiny steel bearings, he'll break one, loose one and swear blind there wasn't a third one.
Works equally well with pipeline hand . . .give him three pumps on a job, he'll break one, loose one and swear blind the other one isn't currently on rental to BJ . . . . . . .
