and afraid to whack it at the moment until I know more.

I thought this was going to be easy, just like bearing replacement on a hope hub.

Anyone, know the procedure for getting them out of this hub ?

Is it just a case of knocking the axle (ali tube) out from the disc side ?

Unlike the Hope there is no way to get a driver against the bearings to knock them out. The ali tube appears to have a olive of some kind each end ?

Some pix attached.

Any help greatly appreciated ๐Ÿ™‚

Place a large bolt in the axle so you don't damage it's thin walls, and tap it through, the bearing on the other end will come out with it.

Thanks Coatesy.

Something along these lines I guess.

Still wondering about the olive things though.

Many thanks.

What looks like an olive or a ring of some kind. Must be my eyesight...

Like you say, just a ridge for the caps.
