Tiny ball bearing in Intelliframe safety - where to buy??

[Hook]

A friend of mine has issues with his intelliframe's safety button, so I took it apart to check it out. The spring is there, but the tiny ball bearing isn't, so I believe I've found the culprit.

So the big question is -- where can I buy a replacement bearing?

You could try Ace. Find a local one that has a big inventory, not all of them do

IIRC the ball out of a grease fitting works
