  1. Hello,

    I re-greased my rear wheel because it was really rough and didn't spin that well. It seemed to go
    well and it's much better but still a little rough.

    The parts looked like they were in good shape and I replaces the bearings. I believe it is adjusted
    properly, it's a nutted axel so I adjusted it so it was loose but with no free-play. Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    There aren't too many "nutted" hubs of very high quality, so it could be that you've accomplished
    the best you can do with the materials at hand. The fact that you mentioned it's much better after
    your servicing is something you should be happy with; the fact that it's still a bit rough probably
    isn't that big a deal. But if you're still questioning how it compares to others, you might drop by
    your local bike shop and see what they think.
