After much faffing about trying to find the source of some creaking and clicking sounds I had replaced all the usual suspects, recently I changed the cartridge hub bearings on my rear wheel, Fulcrum racing 5's. Earlier in June I replaced my GXP BB with an angeltech ceramic one from superstar components.
All semed nice and quiet until just the other day, I got caught out in a serious downpour and since then the clicking has returned.
Is it possible, or necessary to grease ceramic bearings?
When I changed the rear wheel cartridge bearings I did't change the bearing in the freehub, it looked like it was completely sealed so no idea how to get that out or if its even possible. Wiggle sell the freehub body for £40 but I'd lke to know its really knackered before shelling out more cash.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
