A pivot bearing includes a stepped shaft including an enlarged and a reduced diameter shaft portions; a plurality of balls of the lower row are interposed between the enlarged diameter shaft portion and a sleeve outer ring surrounding the enlarged diameter shaft portion; a ball bearing including inner and outer rings and a plurality of balls interposed therebetween is provided around the reduced diameter shaft portion so that the inner ring is secured around the reduced diameter shaft portion with applying an appropriate pre-load on the upper end surface of the inner ring, and the outer ring is urged to contact the lower surface thereof intimately onto the upper surface of the sleeve outer ring. The pivot bearing is reduced in the number of elements, facilitated in incorporating a bearing with the swing arm, and expected to reduce the manufacturing cost.
