Just fyi everyone and you probably already know but I'm sourcing a lot of my spares from David Silver. Seems pretty good and reliable

It was... till BREXIT... now anything from UK gets heavily taxed... (import VAT + fees: 25%... on the total bill, including the P&P!)
Ouch
Now don't laugh coz I reckon I'm lucky to be alive. One bearing pretty darn worn. Second bearing completely gone. So much so I can't knock it out the inside face has disappeared. Only 7 bearings I fell out!!! The stiffness in the wheel was due to the inside of the wheel cracked and deformed which grinded against the inner spacer and that's useless too. Need a replacement wheel 
.
Does a NT 650 wheel fit? 700 ones are a bit rare. I'll keep searching.
Thanks everyone.

No comment on how can one let wheel bearings deteriorate that far...
eBay, one wheel in the Netherlands, two in Italy...
