    How wide are these? Are they as wide as the new breed of 23mm rims?

    Also my front wheel is fine so Im only looking to replace the rear.


    Is it 1 x 6001 for the drive side and 1 x 6901 for the non-drive?


    The reason I ask is that the decent grade SKF bearings are over £12 each so I want to avoid buying 3 of them if I'm only doing the rear wheel.

    I did this yesterday (ten years on from the original post) and yes, the freehub takes 2 x 6901 and the wheel takes 1 x 6901 with a 6001 on the drive side.
    FTR my original bearings lasted 9 years including winter riding.

    Trued the wheel up while it was off (my fault for binning it this winter!) and the wheels are as good as new.

    Total cost was £29 from Engineers Mate on Ebay, not bad for effectively new wheels.
