Repack bearings

[Walleyed]

2 things I learned from my father:

1) slowly tighten the nut until the wheel stops spinning (don't crank on it) and then back off a 1/4 turn and pin it.

2) Bearing buddy's do not grease the bearings. It simply attempts to provide a seal to keep water from getting in. When you pump new grease into the BB, it does not introduce any new grease into the bearing itself.

Repacking the bearings is a rite of spring. I'm a big fan of this little device:
