Hello everyone,
The rear brake hub has been giving me some problems lately, while riding( bike has 260 miles on it 2005 NE5) it started to make noises so I took the rear wheel off and found a few ball bearing inside the hub that came from the wheel bearing cage.
I bought some new ball bearings from a bike shop of the same size and I installed the whole thing back together again. After a few miles the noise came back again. I guess I might as well look for a new hub...right?
If I do need a new hub would I be better off with a Whizzer hub or a Shimano remake of a Bendix hub.......thanks....regards, Ed
