The rear wheel bearings needs changing. Freehub is off.
Bearings are exposed (SKF seal cartridge type that just press in)
But there is nowhere for me to get a drift on to knock them out?
There is a bearing either end of the hub, and inbetween an aluminium tube which is exactly the same diameter as the ID of the bearing. So looking down the hole its a smooth surface all the way.
So how do I get them out? The ally tube doesn;t move out of the way (radially) to expose the edge of the bearing raceway for me to tap?

Their website just says to tap them out!!!

Any help appreciated as always, thanks

buy an expansion bolt of roughly the right diameter and expand it against the race and then hit it with a drift through the axle?
