Bearings...

[pete]

So less than a year ago I replaced the 3 rear wheel bearings & seals in my
bike with Chinese made ones..
it's been a wet winter here so most of the rides have been canceled
have only done around 6 rides..( 6!!.. dam will need to learn how to ride again)
Had the bike up on the stand going over it & noticed the rear wheel was wobbling
and not just a little bit... so pulled the wheel out & the single bearing
on the brake side all but fell apart...
Ok my bike takes a hammering but 6 rides is just silly when the last set lasted
god knows .. maybe 4 years...

The wheel bearings could be something ealse to look at replaceing
when you get your bike...

i will be buying a set of FAG bearing tomorrow...
