I've just read the comprehensive information via:

https://www.jockeys-boxenstop.de/Final- ... -1-3-DL-GP

It appears that they are using a commercially available deep groove ball bearing with seals(s) manufactured by SKF. In essence, Jockey's Boxenstop manufacture an adaptor in which the bearing fits. SKF bearings are good quality, but any European or Japanese bearing from a reputable manufacturer will have almost certainly have been manufactured in the same factory. That means examples such as FAG, Koyo, NTN, SNR etc will fit as replacements in the adaptor, should the need arise.

I cannot give feedback of use but only of my opinion.....for what it's worth :roll: I would buy one in preference to ANY other if I required a new rear hub bearing. It looks to be a well thought out product with not a hint of 'smoke & mirrors' adopted by the manufacturer of the dangerous plastic caged bearings with INNOCENTI etched on. It is a proper replacement which therefore gets around the issues of offset wheel alignments & the bonus is that the OEM separate rear hub seal is no longer required. It is probably bound by German quality standards , possibly TUV :?:

Nice to see some Lambretta specialist suppliers thinking through the product & testing it prior to release to the public.
