Any reason you can't press the drive side bearing in first, negating the need for a long spacer? Probably still need something on the other side, but not quite so long...
I found that i9 bearing does not last long, 6 months of ride and the bearing is toast, not sure why. Previously on my Hope Hub, the bearing lasted me 8 years without play.
Great video and explanation. Thanks for sharing.
May i know what bearing size and numbers for the rear please? Possible to get it not from industry 9 kit?
You should reach ut to thm with the issue, they do great warranties on their bearings. I do not know the bearing numbers off hand.
Hey Loam Roamer, in the service drawing of the i9 hydra hub, there is 2 smal sealrings, whats the place for that?
They are in the bearing as far as I know, can you upload a picture and I can look?

I was only changing spacers on that side, and otherwise I am not 100% on this.

I’ve found the same true too. Kinda odd of a high end hub to wear out so soon.
Because the whole thing is garbage bearings and the drives shell it only lasts about thousand miles max
That’s disappointing, my Hydra’s had 4000 miles and the bearings were great. Not even half that on my 1/1’s.
It is caused by the flex in the axle, which is actually by design. You cannot get 690 POE without some trade offs.
talking about bearings i9 charges u $355 for ceramic bearings when on onyx hubs they come standard..
Oh yeah, my next hubset is Onyx for sure. Especially for the e-bike.
@@LoamRoamer nice, i just ordered one recently for my DJ gonna take 6 weeks but it’s worth it
Hubs are good, time to shred!
Bro farted hard picking up the bearing 💀❤🔥
Shit Happens!!!!
which size wheel MFG spacers fit over the axle ?
6902, wheels are numbered the same as the bearing being used.
