    No one will be able to you and I can safely say no spares will ever be avilable no matter how hard you look.

    Obviously you can buy bearings but anything beyond that is not available for these no name things.

    Good to know but how do I get the bearings out, as I can’t seem to gain access to the bearing.

    Without doing it myself I cant say. Hubs do come apart. There may be push fit or screw in parts that have to removed to expose the bearings. Its not clear what type of bearing you have from that photo either. The axles out for starters.

    Theres not enough info in the photo to help really without guessing. I would suggest take it a bike shop.

    It was put together by a human certainly designed by one so a human can work it out. Part of being a mechanic is being able to work stuff out. Theres not instructions for everything.

    It looks like a fairly generic hub from Formula.

    if it uses cartridge bearings then just look up the number on the bearing and buy replacements?

    Yes. Usually they are standard sizes which have codes. The first 4 or 5 digits demote the size then a space and will probably say 2RS which denotes there is a rubber covered seal on both sides.
