Anyone done this, can't seem to find a service guide?

One bearing (the outside one on the freehub itself) is gritty and I'd like to replace. The rest are still fine.

Dismantled the hub easy enough but cant tell if the freehub is servicable or it is buy a whole new one for £25.

I've not done the freehub ones but did the main hub bearings last year on mine. From what I remember it looked as if you can just knock the bearings out of the freehub and press some new ones in?

Really? They didn't look like they would pop out that easily... did you just use a socket the same diameter as the bearing? and where did you buy the bearings from?

Cheers.
