I started putting the wheels together today. It appears the bearings have been pre-greased and are ready to go. Does everyone agree, or did you have to use more grease? If so….recommendations?
Thanks,
Sean Blair

I do not know what grease was in the bearings when they came, but my guess it was just to keep out corrosion. I cleaned my bearings and used proper Aeroshell grease for wheel bearings (don't recall which number, but you can look it up on their web site). I used the wheel bearing grease buddy machine thingy that Cleaveland and Avery sell. It is about $30, but you'll use it at least every year....

Palm of the hand works also, and you use it everyday. Do not archive.
