If you want the original, tritoncycles has it. if you want a better solution/replacement there are several, I bought the CXP Racing dogbone w/bearings.
I second that. cxp is pretty expensive but the bike became a hard charging monster. I also trew in some offset bushings for the shock into the mix, in order to make it slacker and lower. with the x2 in the back and the 180mm '36 in the front was a miracle maker on the downs.

There's algo the IGUS solution which replaces the original bushings with a new type, a much better one. everything is explained here in this thread if you search; refs, sites, feedback!
;D
Thanks for your help , unfortunately I don’t have enough money for the cxp racing dogbone and they have been out of stock for a while ,
I am going to get the igus bushings
What bushing from them would you recommend and also what are the dimensions as I don’t want to chance it and mess it up
I measured my old bushings and they measured 15mm on the outside 13mm on the inside and 17 mm length , I think 15x17x15 would leave too big of a gap in the middle and be to wide to fit for dogbone
Hello, I don't use my old dogbone anymore as I've changed to the CXP, but as far as I remember the IGUS 15x17x15 that is mentioned fitted perfectly on the stock one! And that's what everyone on this forum bought (I copied from them;D)

On page 39 or 40 I saw someone else said that 15x13x15 worked so I’m not sure
It is suppose to be tight. Some of these bushings/bearings and stuff like that are meant to be pushed and pulled by specific tools (bearing tools) so, sometimes you can do it by hand because there's enough room, but most of the times it doesn't. Blue ones are the ones being replaced by the IGUS (in yellow below) The rest you keep it.

Anyway, took some pictures for you.

Thanks very much , I actually ordered bushings from feinting cycles a while ago but only replaced the bushings that moved so I have the other ones left over , I’ll try to replace the other bushings now
