      @@cjhoyle Hey, I totally agree with the top commenter here, so thank you.
      Just one piece I learned somewhere else which I haven't tried yet myself because I don't have a cone wrench, so I just leave it here you might find it worthy of considering: someone said that it's better to rotate the cone until it touches on the ball bearings so it makes the so called tight bearing, then move the lock nut close so it touches the cone also. Then, tighten the cone counter-clockwise against the luck nut with the cone wrench while keeping the luck nut still. Supposedly it makes things fall into that fine adjustment in a fewer tries. One have to try it though. Thanks again man.

      Although there is one thing you forgot to touch on that other vids did- Why/when to do both sides vs just adjusting one side.

    • @cjhoyle
      @cjhoyle  3 роки тому

      Thanks! This video was specifically focused on the scenario of a loose bearing, so I dealt with the fact that there are 2 cones and locknuts which might need adjusting from that perspective.

    I've just inherited a bike with a sloppy rear wheel. As its been 56 years since I worked on a bike I looked at your video to refresh my memory. You did an excellent job of explaining things. I went to the garage immediately after watching the video and fixed it. Will try it out tomorrow because it's raining cats and dogs in Brisbane Australia at the moment and the bike is a primitive one without mud guards. Liked and subscribed to your channel.

    That is without a doubt the single clearest explanation of adjusting cup and cone bearings I have ever seen. That bit at about ten minutes in where you talked about how the rotation can be transferred to the different parts was absolute gold to me since I have been struggling to understand how tightening the lock nut sometimes seemed to have the effect of loosening the cone and sometimes tightening it - I haven't found that explained anywhere else; everyone just said, 'Hold the cone in position and tighten the lock nut.' As other people have said, _that_ is how to do an instructional video. Thank you!

      Like breaking force
      I moved rear wheel it was Tight
      I moved it In Reverse the Wheel Tire Loosened Up
      Do you think the loose Cone Bolts and Lock nut Caused This?

  • @Priest
    @Priest 2 роки тому +2

    What a well made video, highly professional !
    11:10 , thats exactly what I noticed works the best, when you over-tighten the cone, and then go to tighten the cone and locknut towards each other, the cone loosens just enough to allow axle rotation without wobble

  • @leplane_
    @leplane_ Рік тому

    Thank you thank you! I paid $40 bucks to an old man who just didn't correctly replaced my hub shaft, so I'm learning to do it myself the right way.
    The 4:06 part, this is such a valuable important tip I couldn't find anywhere else. I was dealing with this situation today, and wondering what was going on (I was under the assumption I needed to tight both cones as tightly as possible, while allowing some play, but not too much not too little) but the bolt became loose after spinning the wheel, because I didn't put these bolts where they should go.
    Moral of the story. Learn to do this yourself, takes some time but you'll end up with new skills, and save up money ( or avoid getting ripped off like me).
    Your channel deserves way more subs. Cheers

    One of the best most educational bike/motorbike/car videos I've ever watched. I only understood bearings is what spin things a few years ago (and I'm in my forties), but I didn't realise there was this cup/cone system as well as the press-in types. Your clear shots of the cup and the cone system made it so easy to understand, cheers.

    I watched this video as I thought it was time I learned how to tighten the wobbly front wheel on my 1985 bike. Once I'd started I thought I might as well give it a good clean and grease the parts. The wheel no longer wobbles and is able to spin freely. I should have watched the other video first really but I had already been inspired by this one. I went from not knowing what to do to completing the job in one go thanks to watching this!

    Great video. First time replacing an axle, kept overtightening the cones and pinching the bearings. I've got it right now thanks these instructions.
    Just for future reference, I picked up a set of thin wrenches from Home Depot that can do the same job as a cone wrench. While it's good to have that specialized wrench, the set has 12 different sized wrenches - 6 sae and 6 metric - so you have a lot of variety for different jobs. Great to have if you work on more than just this one project.

    CJ, thank you so much. I'm goin' bananas over here right now and your video is a soothing balm to my soul. :D
    I have a 28'' city bike that I use to commute and for practically everything else, and it just so happened that this has been the issue with the bike for quite some time now, but I didn't consider it as an off the charts problem, especially since I didn't invest time nor will to learn about the problem and its solution. That is until today when my chain just straight up fell off my bike during the ride... :////
    I've recently bought two used foldable bikes - one already has issues with the rear wheel: for that one a local bike shop sold me a used wheel with a coaster hub, so right now I just gotta find that little metal piece on which to clamp the wheel hub in order to have it working properly; and the other bike is going to be delivered next week I think, so I can't wait to figure out what's wrong with that one! xD
    All that to say, in these couple of days I've probably lost more hair than in 30 years of my life, so your video and effort you put into it mean a lot to me. I subbed and I look forward to learn more about bikes and how to maintain/repair them from you.
    Cheers and blessings! ;)

      Thanks! I normally takes a few tries, but sometimes it takes quite a few. The key though is just not the get frustrated and keep on trying.

    I believe you demonstrated my problem with cassette sprocket continuing to spin forward when I stop pedaling causing chain to loosen on top and coming off and causing pedals to keep pedaling without my feet on them. Seems like I need to loosen the cones.
