Default Re: Repack bearings

I do mine myself. Use a quality grease. The key is not to over tighten the nut and put too much preload on the bearings. I tighten the nut to set the bearings and then back off slightly. The wheel should spin freely with no drag but you shouldn't be able to rock the wheel on the spindle either.
