@19NEWMAN98

step 0 - visit 50 garage sales looking for one selling a bike

step 0.1 - continue till u find a bike with the same size rim as yours

should only take a weekend or 2

[MaghoxFr]

I have every tool except for the bike wheel :P

[Diddyhiggs]

can i use WD40 on the bearings?

[fusionstar916]

@Diddyhiggs WD is not primarily lubricant, It is used to displace water(WD = WATER DISPLACE). In the long run, it will ruin your bearings. Use a bearing grease.

[Diddyhiggs]

@fusionstar916 thanks, lucky i didn then :)

[DarkHalmut]

@Diddyhiggs Not a good idea. WD40 is not thick enough and will run out or dry out from the wheel and has a tendency to gum up when introduced to a lot of dust and grime.

[Diddyhiggs]

@DarkHalmut ok thanks :)

[kerjulon]

@DarkHalmut hi a tendecy a lost.recycle in any metal

[SuperXmichaelx]

@Diddyhiggs no! its way way to thin you have to use grease

[relampago21]

an important tip was missed, don't adjust the hub too tight or too loose, find a medium term

[sonnetg]

Thanks. Very helpful video. Would it be possible to show how the rear wheel bearings are greased? Thanks so much.

[TheMaPHEW]

Can you use vaseline...?

[azizbasrom]

interesting & thanks for the video...

[unbounddreams]

can anyone tell me what kind of grease you should use please?

[hallmonitor98]

what if I only have a new cloth? : \

[06DRender]

if u buy a wheel with sealed bearings do u ever have t do this

[Demimorph]

What if I just splash some door oil in them without even removing them (the bearings). Is that ok? .... Am I being a dork if I do that??!

[sefjaguar]

@Demimorph I wouldn't advise it because oil is a different consistency to grease. Also if dirt gets into the oil it could ruin your hub, whereas bike specific grease contains teflon to repel dirt etc.

[krusherkid]

who repairs bikes for a hobby? wtf?

[06DRender]

@krusherkid  most people if u are dedicated to iking u should b dedicated to fixing it

[bee5120]
