Hello Jürgen, Hello Pythonists,
I think that if either bronze or nylon bushes where engineeringly sound idea's that the bicycle industry would have adopted them as common practice long ago.
Nylon bushes are used for the tiny child' s bikes but they wear out rapidly.
Bronze bushes wear, they would be quite heavy and not adjustable.

Ok that is true, if there is wear, that I will not be able to compensate for it. And the pivot is probably not the place to have a tolerance (play?). Back to the ball bearings then...

The ball bearing idea is still in my opinion the best way to go.
I have been thinking about the pivot bearings and I may have an alternative solution soon.
I am away from work for several weeks and would be available to machine up any ball bearing type pivots. I dont know what the freight would cost. I know that it only takes a few days airfreight to Europe. 

This would probably prohibitly expensive!

thank you,
Dirk
