How easy is it to service the rear wheel on a Brompton? I think there is literally no grease in my bearings anymore more as when I roll downhill there seems to a lot of rubbing noise when coasting. I’ve checked all the components and conclusion is the hub itself.

Common things are brake or mudguard rub, if it’s bearings then it’s easy to service, refer to link below for bearing spec

I thought of this initially and checked the rear wheel is there was any sort of rubbing, but this grinding noise is only noticeable when I am coasting hence the rear wheel hub would where the issue is (I hope)
