Aren't roller bearings also quieter than standard ball bearings?

Today I replaced the front wheel bearings with taper roller bearings: Moss Part Number GHK1142X (X= taper)
I had to thin the spacer ring a bit, but that was all. Cost €40 per side. The radius of the inner bearing was also large enough. I hope they last a long time.

Not tapered. Woodruff keyed.

Isn't it on a taper?

What seemed difficult, was rendered very, very,very, easy.

Just a thought.

I agree with Dave. Levers/stiff screwdriver usually works.

Or you could try open ended spanners, as I used to remove diff bearings, because I didn't have the right puller.

Willy suggested it might work. And it worked superbly, as normally these bearings are damaged by repeated removal.

The right sized open endeds may work on your sprocket.

Thanks guys! Happy New Year.

Yes...pout sans trout..

Unlike so many faces these days which seem to get the syntax wrong...

The original 'trout pout' ?

God Created Woman and Bardot created uproar.

Very Marianne Faithfull. Which version came first?

Agreed. As it's generally the points heel that wears if anything aim to get close to the lower end of the tolerance rather than the upper as that should keep them in tolerance for longer. But having said that I never have to readjust between 10k replacement intervals anyway.
