Bearings

Postby Littlewheels » Sat Sep 16, 2023 8:52 pm

Looking at what's available today with respect to bearings and more specifically the makers of bearings it got me wondering who were the original suppliers to innocenti? Did they use one company or several? Anyone know the name/s of them?

I don’t know the answer to your question but I suspect Innocenti used whatever supplier was cheapest and/or available. This almost certainly meant that different bearings were used and different stages of the production period.

So many of Innocenti’s changes were driven entirely by cost: they weren’t as committed to the marque as us.
