Hi, could anybody help me with a wheel problem ? I've got a pair of Bontrager racelite wheels with sealed bearings and the hubs are now sounding a little in need of re-greasing and as they are sealed bearings there seems no obvious way of getting inside them to grease them, could anybody help me with suggestions on how to fix this problem. Many thanks, Pete.

    Knock out the old bearings and fit new ones - they're standard industrial cartridge bearings so easy to source online for a fraction of the Bontranger spares price. Even if the old bearing is unmarked, you can work out the type from it's dimensions - see a bearing specialist site for details.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
