I am in the same boat.

Best I can come up with is Burton power with AE big ends and Glyco mains.
I don’t have a problem with these.
They do Mahle Hd big ends but not mains.

ACL now make heavy duty (duraglide) big ends. they're not the cheapest, but they are available at reasonable cost compared to mahle motorsport. as for mains, take your pick. King would be fine, glyco, ks and mahle are all fine too. I have ACL's in mine all round, but only because they were freely available to me at the time. I'd gladly stick king bearings all round. they may be 'cheap', but i know people who have used them for years and years without any issues.

Ok thanks for that. Having not used them i didn't want to put in some cheap Chinese shit for the sake of another fifty quid.
