overmind
My other bike is a Pinarello
- Location
- Reading, Berkshire
Is the following 'short-term' fix advisable ? What are the pros and cons ?
The hubs in my daughters bike are a bit sluggish. The bearing are not too loose or tight. I think the reason is probably because the bike has not been used much and that the grease has solidified a little.
The long term fix would simply be to clean out/degrease the hubs and pack new bearing and grease in there but in the short term is the following viable ?
I was thinking of squirting a small amount of GT85 into the hubs to loosen them up a bit. Is this a good idea ?
Opinions please.
