Hello...first time posting! I picked up a bike two weeks ago used at a nice price.
I am in process of changing tires and bearings. I have a couple questions...thanks in advance for advice!!
Taking the rear wheel off the right bearing came out and hit the floor. The wheel was leaning to the right, so the internal spacer came out too. Not a big deal because I intend to swap out the bearings. But I am confused because my spacer only had one rubber/soft plastic ring, not sure what you call it, on it. I have watched youtube videos. From what I have seen there should be three? Any idea where I can pick up a couple of those rings if needed?
There is a bit of rust on the spacer (not bad at all). Being a 2016 bike, understandable. It's not from the spacer. I guess it's from the wheel. Thoughts about clean up before I button things up.
Best bearing recommendation for these bikes??
Thanks!
