Is it possible to re-grease these? My original Hone BB lasted just 6 months and the present one sounds as though it could do with some grease.

I like to try and keep this one going as long as possible!

I managed it - trick is removing the plastic sleeve bit w/o destroying it.

Think there's an online guide. "Engineers" will tell you that you will damage the seal and the world will end, but if you're careful it's fine.

Obviously you don't need to take out the bearings but you get the idea.
