I came into some Katrina stuff recently.One item is wheelset-White industry hubs with 217 rims.They are pretty smooth considering they spent 4 weeks underwater, but I'm wondering if these hubs are rebuildable-can you change the bearings-and it is worth doing?They are pretty nice wheels.
There is a little oil hole on one side of the hubs; it probably leads to the bearings, so they must not be sealed bearings.How can I get the hub apart and get at the bearings.Thanks,Charlie
PS They are really nice, true wheels-very light also.I really want to save them.
