Pretty sure on the r8 spindle it is 2MM207* in Fafnir


I've got a set of Fafnir's bought on ebay, waiting for time and
motivation to install. Box says 2MM207WI DUL, additional info says 100%
tested per ABMA STD 13, ABEC 9-MMV

There's a couple folks selling these and the Barden bearings on ebay.
Might do well to price shop. I don't recall what I paid, but it was a
lot less than list price in the MSC catalog.
