Here's a question: Where is a good place to buy caged bearings? I need some for the front hub of this bike. Thus far, I've only gotten them from the co-op. I would love to have my own source for parts so I'm not dependent solely on the co-op.
Shifting focus to the front hub today: I realized as I rode that the front hub really needed attention. I know, not surprising. So, I opened it up tonight. What a simple setup!
The nut that locks the bearing adjustment is the mounting nut!
So, this hub really needed service! One of the caged bearings came apart as I opened things up.
