Hub Parts

Hi, I'm rebuilding Shimano hubs, can someone recommend a good place to buy hub parts for Shimano? Thanks.

Your LBS can order new cones and seals. Bike Tools Etc and Loose Screws have a variety of cones and my have the ones you need. Be sure to speify the exact model hubs you have.

New bearing balls are available from your LBS, the above mail order sources or any bearing supply house. If you buy locally specify Grade 25 as a lower number is better. Grade 25 is far superior to Grade 200. Front hubs require 3/16" balls and rear hubs use 1/4" balls.
