Well?

Anyone tried it - or is it a completely different size?

I'd imagine the issue would be getting the newgrease past the bearing seals and having somewhere for the old stuff to come out? If you haven't got both sorted you won't actually be greasing the bearings?

Yeah - not sure how it gets into the back of the bearings on the BB

The outer bearing seals look the same as the outer headset ones, but not sure if they are the same or not

you need to remove the metal & rubber seals from the BB in order for the old grease to escape, when purging with new grease.

I havent tried it the headset regrease
