Hub Overhaul Class

When:
2825 Fairfax St.

Where:
Monday, September 12.

Learn how to open up a hub, degrease it, clean the bearings, and re-pack it with fresh grease! A Bike Depot volunteer mechanic will guide you through the process as you unlock the cones on a used axle, remove the bearings from your hub, and look inside of a loose-bearing hub. From there, you will be guided through the process of cleaning out the inside of the hub, identifying any damaged or worn out bearings and replacing them if necessary, re-greasing the bearings, re-packing the hub, and re-assembling the hub. Plan on this class taking one hour. It can get a bit messy, so gloves and aprons will be provided!!
