Hi, I recently got a set from Cambridge Lambretta. Other places to try would be Scooter Restorations and Torbay Lambretta. Allstyles and Scootopia might be worth a phone call as their websites are poor compared to the above.

I've heard of the idea to use loose bearings as you've found, some prefer it. Plenty of grease to hold them in place. I think you get more in that way, the advantage of a race is probably just ease of assembly.
