A while back, it was impossible to get a decent tube. I won't blame the Chinese because no matter where they were made, they were rubbish made out of recycled materials. IMO, the ones made in Europe were the worst. I think it was Brattons who had some made from virgin materials and they were good. They did quite nicely out of them till others found they couldn't sell their rubbish so they started supplying better ones. Let's hope the same thing happens with these bearings and a few other notoriously poor repro parts.
