Well done, Hugh!
Don't know if it will help but when I had the bitza crank out Dev was offering big end bearings down t - 100 tho, from memory.
At the time I couldn't find a machine shop down here to deal with directly (I've got a grip of the language and far more contacts now, only taken ten years...) so I had the local agricultural engineers send off the crank and bearing for machining as a pair. No idea what size they are now, it's irrelevant until the next time...
Obviously you'd still be stuck with the delivery issues but I would think Dev could get you bearings made to almost any practical size, at reasonable cost.
Cheers
Stef
