Has anyone replaced the cartridge bearings in gran compe hubs before?
If so, what spec of bearings do they take?

I know it's probably possible to get the numbers off the side of the existing bearings, but the locknuts on my hubs are well and truly stuck on the axle - before I undertake the (maybe momentus) task of removing them I'd like to have replacement bearings ready to go in.
Cheers.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
