Wheel bearing came out...

[DMan]

Pooop. I removed the cassette off a wheel and the bearing came out as well. I've tried pressing it back in but it gets to here and then stops. I'm frightened to crank on the press as it came out easy enough with the cassette.... Thoughts??

Remove freehub, remove offending bearing, check bearing and bearing seat. Go from there.

Will do again tomorrow then

I'm with Oddjob, you're likely getting friction against both inner and outer. Pull the freehub off and set the bearing in that and then tap the inner bearing race onto the axle.

Just push it back in and cover with Loctite.

You forgot to dip it in grease first.

True...maybe inject some in after?

That’s normal. That’s a real sram driver by the looks of it.


Sram are the one of the few (industry 9 do too) manufacturer of XD drivers who leave half the bearings outer race unsupported. Sometimes they float about, installing the cassette locates the bearing correctly.

Nice one @link1896

I’ve never seen that version of an XD driver. Looks dodgy / wrong though!

No one mentioned a hammer? Didn’t know about the cassette locating the bearing. Will add to the brain file.

The place has changed ever since @Ultra Lord took up electrics in place of uggaduggatappamometry.

Jumper leads on the bearing? Are hammers useful for electrics?

Doesn’t everyone instal glands with a hammer?
EMC stuff is a little difficult but I did figure out a special technique. taptapBONK instead of the normal straight bonk.

I should have noticed the spacer between the 2 bearings.... probably. So he's spot on about it sitting halfway out
Anyway, he saved me destroying a hub!

Its a SRAM product, it's already halfway there!
