Has anyone replaced the bearings on one of these? I have had a look on the net for a manual but have drawn a blank so far. Is my googling weak?

Quick Google suggests non drive is a 6902 and driveside inside freehub is a 15267 if that's any help

An exploded view of the hub is in this link

Ah yes, I found that diagram but mine is a centre-lock and only has a flat sided nut on the drive side. It has what looks like a pull off cap on the non-drive side but it won't pull off. I thought perhaps the axle was hexagonal inside to take a large allen key, but it is round.

EDIT - needed a damn good pull but the non-drive side popped off in the end.

Does that expose the bearing?

Yep, should be pretty straight forward now. Not only was my googling weak, but so was my tugging technique.
