Stan Shaw Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Remove the wheel from the bike and give the axle a tap with a mallet, it'll push the opposite bearing out. The axle will then pull out. If the axle is feeling rough its probably because the bearings need replacing. There isn't much to service as such, because there is only an axle and two bearing in the hub shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
