Hey, has anyone been ahving problems with loosening hubs, and/or having to overhaul them? I have a real cheap-o wheel on right now, and the hub is almost destroyed after only 100K(approx.) Is it just because it's a low-cost steel wheel? does the added vibration and chain tension cause this?
One hundred kilometers is only about 60 miles.
I do that in a couple of days.
cruising and enjoying.
Grease em good.
Balance em good, and zip tie your spokes.
I have no local bike shops any more.
Just wally world kmart and target.
I would like try a cartridge bearing.
where to buy them though?
