But the image you posted shows information detailing the process of doing this. It's confusing to me that you'd be using that image to show your hub without already knowing why it is the way that it is.
I am aware of what it is, why it is the way that it is etc.
Thats not what I was asking.
I was asking a generalized question about 3/16 balls being in a hub that is in the rear position.
I am not asking a product specific question, but rather a question about how much load and use a 3/16 ball bearing equiped hub can tolerate when used in the rear. And that, relative to 1/4 inch balls.
