Do I add grease to the ceramic bearing or leave it dry?

Ta, J x

Just ignore it, it'll outlast the teeth on the jockey wheel by miles anyway.

Er, beg to differ - the reasen why I'm cleaning it is 'coz it aint revolving. Will grease attract fresh dirt in quicker or will it run smoother with a bit of grease is my question.

I add a bit of grease. Have got through jockey wheels this winter though; teeth ground down to very little over recent weeks.

Keep them clean and lubed boys, replacements will be £30 before long!

The jockey wheels as well 😆

I always pop in a bit of grease. Lubing up helps! 😕
