Rear wheel bearing help

05-17-2005, 04:38 PM

Hi All!,
I've noticed some perceptible movement in my rear wheel when gripping it at 9 and 3, you can wiggle it a little bit. I'd like to replace the bearings, is there anything special I should know and where can I get new bearings?

Thanx in advance!

Amazingly in the tech tips, under Repairs, Wheels, there is a wonderful article about replacing the rear wheel bearings.
