Stuck bearing case..

[Ben.]

Oky, so im getting REALLLLLLLY fucked of. My case that the bearings in is stuck in my wheel. Any help, Btw, a flathead and hammer dont work -.-

 

[BrandonWeir]

I'm afraid I don't understand the question. Your bearing is stuck in the wheel? Or are you trying to get the little cage cover thing off so that you can lube them up?

 

[Ben.]

You know on the bearings how they have the metal ring on the outside? everything on the insides gone, except that metal thing. Hope you understand :\

 

[ConnorD]

Ahhhhhh that is reallllyyy shitty bro
Not too much you can do there, exept for cut a slit in it and then pry it out. Pretty difficult though.

 

[Connzi machell]

Yeah probably only choice is to maybe cut it in half and smash the crap out of it? I don't even know. Sucks bro.

 

[Ben.]

Fuck my life . Apps if you put them in a oven, it expands the metal :/

 

[BrandonWeir]

Oh I know what your talking about. This is one of the biggest bitches of problems. Did you try putting the bearing back together? If you have all the balls and the smaller ring, sometimes you can get it back together if the smaller ring is fucked up and knock it out. Other than that, you can take a grinder and be very precise and try to cut it and get it out somehow. Idk this is really tough. But I've seen the mission accomplished in those two ways.

 

[Ben.]

Ilost the shit And we dont own a grinder. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuucckkk

 

[BrandonWeir]

Take it to someone who knows their shit (maybe a bike shop or a hardware store, although it's usually a stretch) and see if they have any wisdom for you. What kind of wheel is it stuck in?

 

[Ben.]

a fucking pathetic mgp aero core. it's a abec 5 sure grip. stock bearing.

 

[BrandonWeir]

I'll take the wheel if you don't want it lol.

 

[Ben.]

Ilive in new zealand... :L .

 

[BrandonWeir]

Awww balls. Well good luck, if I think of anything I'll tell you.

 

[Ben.]

this happened to me a bunch of times with my demons, go find the skinniest flathead you can, the stick it between the center of the hub and the bearing (it will barely catch keep trying til it does) the hammer it out, you have to do it from the opposite side of the bearing that is stuck, so you can hit it out from the other side, took me like 30 minutes to get mine but it worked...

 

[Ben.]

Ilove you ^ haha, im fucked of about this -.-

 

[CollinDonnelly95]

did you get it out yet?
theres that ring in the middle of your hub and the ring is stuck against it? flip it over, the find like a hole in the ground the the ring is hovering but the rest of the wheel is held up then just hammer it around in a circle, it will slowly press the ring out if you switch sides a bunch it helps to evenly push it out once it starts its pretty easy

 

[Ben.]

i havent tryed yet. lol.

 

[Victor C.]

oh im lucky this exact same thing happened to me yesterday, but it easily came out. just keep trying it will come out eventually

 

[Ben.]

what did you use ^
