Hi All

I have had a look around the different forums for any information on how to remove and replace front & rear wheel bearings, I can remember doing both on a previous bike but I cant remember :confused1: if there was any special tooling needed, my gut tells me that there wasn't and the old bearings were knocked out through the center of each wheel and the new bearings tapped in with a socket or the old bearing race

Could anyone offer any advice or direct me to the "how to" if one is available please?

Thanks

Firstly there is no need to SHOUT in every title of your posts .
The search button will help you find what you are looking for .
You remove the wheelbearings are removed using a drift or the likes to knock them out.

This will help to refit them

Just be careful and make sure the bearings are seated properly and the Center spacer is square.
It's a very straight forward job
Good luck
