Ive just done the bearings for the first time on my spline 1 hubs, it appears there is a bit of a knack to getting the seal in that goes on the outside of the hub shell.

I thaught i had it in, but now she drags…..

Any way of doing it without a £200 tool set?

Yup- take the axle out and use the freehub to press it in- naturally it fits perfectly into the seal (the tool is essentially the same thing, just slightly easier to use)

Ta! (Why didnt i think of that!! ) 🙂
