Fixing your wobbly or stiff jockey wheels for £7.50 or less

jon1993

Hi just thought I'd share some success I've had repairing roller bearing jockey wheels to help others out. If you scrape a knife around the outside edge of the bearing to remove the 0.5mm lip it's nice and easy to do and the bearing pops out with a gentle push. Went to a reputable bearing sales and took the bearing with me and replaced both for 7.50. Pushed them back in with a dab of super glue just to make sure they dont move and works perfect.

Nothing wrong with Tacx, I have used them for years. Two year guarantee.
By the way the teeth on all jockey wheels wear out, usually before the bearings do.
