Hi guys!
Yesterday I noticed this grinding noise from the real wheel while reversing the bike, and I immidiately thought it was the chain or sprockets. I changed that last year, so I realized it couldn't be, and the chain is allways well lubed. After cleaning the bike thoroughly, that noise was stille there. I put it up on the paddock stand, and I am relatively sure it is one of the bearings. The odd thing though, is that the wheel did not wiggle when I tried to pull and push it, so it is fairly secure in all axis.
So, who here have changed bearings? And how difficult was it? I don't know if it's necessary to do it before winter (it's only one month left of riding, give or take), but I will have to do it before next season. Any answer is highly appreciated:thumbup:
