  1. I got a cb san remo. In the manual it says to lubricate certain parts I dont have any idea how you even get at them. It also doesnt say how to lubricate those parts. Like how do I grease the hub bearings for example? It says I should do that monthly along with lubricatin something in the crank.

    In my opinion, you shouldnt even need to look at the hub bearings that often unless you are doing 1000s of miles a month.

    If you are really concerned, get your bike shop to give the bike a service and ask to watch ... you'll not endanger the bike ( or your safety .. ) with experimental repairs, you'll support your local bike shop thereby ascending one step closer to local super hero, and you'll even learn where those parts are and how to get at them next time 🙄
