Head Hunter CF frame and bearings question

[weav01]

Hey guys. Bought a HeadHunter Gaui 550 last year and want to replace the bearings throughout. The previous owner upgraded to a Headhunter frame. Are all the bearings the same as what is in the stock plastic 550 frame? Was looking at a complete kit over at bocabearings.

I have 2 HeadHunter frames, and they are awesome. The only bearings that are different from the stock plastic frame are the 2 bearings on the one-way shaft. That is the shaft that has the front gear that meshes with the pinion, and the one-way bearing/gear at the bottom. The HeadHunter frame uses the same larger bearings as the main shaft bearings.

Not sure of actual size, but if memory serves me right, the owb shaft on the plastic frame uses 8mm x 12mm x 3.5mm bearings, and the HH frame uses 8mm x 16mm x 5mm bearings on the owb shaft, same as the main shaft. All other bearings are the same.
