My Wellgo MG1's have started to creak and therefore needs some tlc. First you remove the hex bolt, but inside that is a recessed nut. Not tool I have will fit into the gap, so what tool do folks use to solve the problem?
Just drill a hole in the dust cap and squirt grease through.
The dust cap can be removed easily and I guess I could just squirt some grease through, but for a proper bearing change how the flip do you get the nut off?
is this of any use http://steveukmtb.wordpress.com/dmr-v8-pedal-overhaul-cup-and-cone/
Thanks for your efforts davy-g, but my MG1's have sealed bearings and although similar at a glance very different to work with.
Bump! Come on guys, this is STW, somebody always knows the answer! The creaking is driving me mad!
I use a 10mm socket wrench, to take the recess nut off. slide pedal off. clean axel and regrease with comma multipurpose grease.
