minus-square@EddoWagt@feddit.nllinkfedilink18•8 months agoI recently did my yearly service of filling the tires, I’ve literally never opened up the wheel hub of a bicycle in my entire life
minus-square@BCsven@lemmy.calinkfedilink4•8 months agoI have had my frame about 16 years, when i repacked crank bearings I also cleaned and repacked wheel bearings. You have to do in an area where you can track down a lost ball, but they run nice with some lithium grease.
minus-square@Mr_Blott@lemmy.worldcakelinkfedilink-2•8 months agoThose ball bearings are loose for a reason. Because you never fuckin open the hub for any reason
minus-square@lntl@lemmy.mllinkfedilink0•8 months agoI have a small jars of bearings for my BBs and another for my freehubs. I’m not afraid :)
