My Hoops Pro3 (SP6) rear hub has a bit of wobble in it, so I guess it's time for new bearings. CRC want £37 for the 4(?) bearings. I thought that was pretty dear for 9 months' occasional use...
Anyway, has anyone taken one of these hubs apart, and can tell me for sure how many bearings it takes (Pro2 takes 5?)? If the strip/build process is just like a vanilla Hope XC hub, then it's easy.
I couldn't find any exploded diagrams for the Hoops on the web.

Colleague of mine opened his up yesterday, 5 bearings inside, don't think they're the same ones as a Pro11 though.

Eh?
By vanilla I mean the plain, 1st generation Hope XC hub (Ti-Glide or whatever you want to call it) 🙂
I'd found those links, but didn't know if the SP hub was the same as the Pro3 Mono (road) one.
Thanks guys.
