squeeky bearings

[robtom123]

when i tighten up my wheel my bearings squeek like a high pitch weird noise but if i take of the wheel and spin it in my hand it doesnt do anything when i only tighten it up a little so that the wheel still wobbles it still does it whats wrong how can i fix it without new bearings

take the shield off the bearing and grease or lubricate. I hope it helps.

i have that same problem.

either the bearings are in the wrong way, so the middle race is getting kinda squeezed into and not hitting the spacer, or you are riding it like completely dried out. Take out your bearings, put them in the other way and then lube them up. This happened with my reds.

Lube 'em up like a Brazilian

Make sure you have a bearing spacer in the middle of the two bearings and put some lube in there.

Where about? Inside or outside the fork?

inside the fork so they are outside the bearings but inside the fork

Well, I don't know. Try making the same high-pitched squeaking noise the bearings are and show 'em who's boss.

 

[robtom123]

ok.

 

[Grant.Twisted]

same problem the only way to fix it is to get new bearings and keep them just tight enough so they dont wobbly but still spin fast. and dont buy bones swiss
