Bikes: I built the Bianchi track bike back up today.

The rear doesn't have the middle grease hole. The front one does. The caps popped off fine - I just didn't know if they were different than others that I've worked with and didn't want to break something by accident.

After cleaning the rear, there look to be 3 worn spots on the drive side on the races. Depending on the angle, you can see them, and if you take a pen or a dental tool and run along the metal you can feel it get a little rough. Pretty close to how my DA rear hub is, and I was told that was 'past it's servicable life' by a wrench at the LBS. Bummer. The finish problems on the flanges aren't cleaning up as nice as I'd like, either.

Still, the cog and lockring are in perfect shape and probably worth what I paid for the hub, so I think it was a good deal. Anyone happen to know if the threading on the Campy cogs and lockring is going to be different than other more modern hubs?

Thanks again.
