New Bearing time!
This weeks workshop jobs have all had wheel related issues.
These wheels were making an awful noise every time pressure was applied through the pedals.
Originally the noise sounded like it was due to a worn out BB, but on further inspection it was easy to see the problem was related to the rear wheel bearings and poor sealing of the hub on this particular brand of road wheel.
It is a common issue and have seen it many times before unfortunately.
