Hi, I think you're referring to a Generation 1 hub. My hub is the Centerlock version of the Generation 2 hub and doesn't have the bolt in the end cap. See here, Gen 1 and Gen 2 differences: www.newmen-components.de/upload/_temp/gallery_dc303a7d-ef8e-484f-a53b-f82f11f6d65f/Hub_Comparison_Gen1_Gen2_FADE.pdf This is my actual hub: www.newmen-components.de/upload/_temp/gallery_dc303a7d-ef8e-484f-a53b-f82f11f6d65f/Gen2_MTB_rear_CL_exploded_view.PDF
Hi, could you maybe tell me the size of the pipe you use for pressing the bearings in? I can not find Newman one to buy anywhere and I need to change my bearings before Sunday I have a race then. Did you maybe change them in front wheel too? I need only for front wheel.
Hi, the bearings for my front wheel are 2 x 6803 2RS (26mm OD x 17mm ID x 5mm W). I use a 25.90mm diameter press tool to fit them. The bearings for my rear wheel are 2 x 6803 2RS (26mm OD x 17mm ID x 5mm W) also. I use the same 25.90mm press tool for this wheel too. The bearings for my freewheel are 1 x 6803 2RS (26mm OD x 17mm ID x 5mm W) and 1 x 6802 2RS (24mm OD x 15mm ID x 5mm W). I use the same 25.90mm press tool as above and also use a 23.90mm press tool for the smaller bearing. Cheers.
@@CoruscatorMTB Do I need that specific tool from Newman of I can use anything that has that diameter? Does the normal press tool goes inside? Because of that sleeve inside.
@@MetalFukaz You can use anything that is slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the bearings you are fitting. Just make sure you only apply force to the outer race when fitting the bearings or you will damage them and shorten their lifespan. The only tool that goes inside a bearing is the one for the smaller bearing when fitting it into the freewheel.
@@MetalFukaz well yes you can, ideally you'd want to use a thick walled pipe because you need to be careful not to damage the seal in the bearing with this method. You could always use a washer the same size as the bearing to protect the seal while you hammer it.

Hi, in my video I didn't need to change this bearing but when I do I use my Newmen bearing removal tools and a soft blow mallet. You can buy these removal tools here: r2-bike.com/NEWMEN-Hub-Tooling-Set-for-Fade-and-Gen-2
Hi, this is not a Microspline freewheel in the video. Mine is a Gen2 MTB Centerlock Hub with an SH freewheel. According to Newmens website your XD freewheel is different but the hub should be the same.

Hey. On the disc side the endcap has a little screw, so you don't have to remove it like you did just loosen the screw you're good to go.

@@CoruscatorMTB I saw online that they just pound it in with the hammer same as you did. I can then just get pipe same diameter and do it with that?
