I was given a fire damaged bike.
From the outside the wheels looked ok but after dismantling the rear hub it looks like they’ve been sitting in water for a long time.
The bearing races look pretty shot, and the internals very rusty. It’s currently having a good soak but I’m 98% sure this needs to go in the bin.
Looking for qualified opinions if you know anything about these. Cheers.
