Could anyone tell me how to do this, or give me a link to some where that can? Cheers.

    Rear to start with, but as i like to do my own servicing both would be ideal.

    Oops sorry fella, forgot I replied to your thread :oops:

    Anyhoo. You'll need a cassette tool to get the cassette off. Two 5mm allen keys.

    Take the wheel out :shock: , remove QR, remove cassette, insert the allen keys into each end of the axle, unscrew and remove caps. GENTLY pull the freehub away from the hub. Et Voila, you now have access to the bearings. Clean everything up, some nice lightweight grease/oil to the freehub pawls and away you go.

    Jobs a good 'un :D

    If you need to remove/replace bearings (do you really need to? - I've done over 2K miles on mine and only needed to nip up the end caps to take the play out if the freehub) you'll need to fashion a drift of some description.
