Correct way to insert ball bearing cage into rear hubs
Hi all,
I've had to replace ball bearings in my rear hubs and the bike shop provided the ball bearings in cages but I realise I am not sure which way the cages go. Can anyone tell me which way they go round? Cheers Adrian |

Balls toward the 'cup'(outside of the bearing assembly), cage toward the 'cone'(inside of bearing assembly). You can also toss the cage. Add grease to the cup, add balls until all touch, then remove one. Probably about 11. |

yep, agree. It would be really obvious if it were backward. |
