May 1, 201610 yr Evening all, need to replace wheel bearings in rear wheel. What brand is best to use? Thanks
May 1, 201610 yr Whatever brand you use make sure you carefully take off the plastic bearing covers and pack them well with new waterproof grease.
May 1, 201610 yr If you go onto "Simply Bearings" website they offer a range of quality / price. I generally find so long as they are branded such as SKF or Timken, how long they last is far more to do with maintenance. You can flick the seal out of a RS bearing, rinse it out with 2 stroke mix or WD40, let it dry and re grease it and they last for many years.
