Wheel bearing size
Wheel bearing size
I know my MTB rear hub has loose ball bearing but without taking it apart and measuring them I don't know what size. Is there a standard size of ball bearings for MTB hubs? 3/8" or 1/4" or does it vary from hub to hub?
I'm not old and cynical, I'm realistic!
Re: Wheel bearing size
they are usually 1/4" in a rear hub.

Unless its a quando freehub. In which case it may be 9 X 1/4" on the left side and 10 X something smaller probably 7/32" (wish i measured them when i dismantled it). This was a Dawes branded hub BTW. Best to check when you open it up just in case.
