disc brake bearings

Postby alex_hughes » Sun Feb 20, 2022 8:42 pm

Hi

I'm rebuilding a standard disc brake.

These days I seem much more concerned with doing things in the right order compared to when I was younger. It's an age thing I guess.

So, outer bearing in first? or inner bearing in first?

And presumably both bearings don't go fully home, since then the distance piece seems to be too long? So one fully home and the other just pushed in to suit?

Thanks

Alex

put the outside one in first, then circlip, then pack with grease, then the spacer tube, then the inner one

Thanks for that, really appreciate your help.

I had looked on youtube and there are two different rebuild videos which say the opposite to each other...
