Hi
I’ve got the front wheel out for the first time on my Rapide C (tyre change) and I’m just cleaning and re greasing the bearings. They’ve done around 9k.
Would welcome a few pointers on correct setup and renewing if needed.
The right side bearing is fixed on but the left comes off easily.
There’s a paragraph in ‘Know Thy Beast’ on grease retainers. Nilo-Rings are mentioned but don’t know anything about them. The Rapide has the felt type.
Also have noticed some damage on the centre rim of the large gear. Not sure if this affects anything.
Any help appreciated.
