Noticed my rear cassette wobbling around a bit and making funny noises. It's been making funny noises for a while but I only just realised what the problem is when I took the cassette off. There is a bit of play in it – no play in the wheel itself against the frame.
It is likely to be the freehub bearings that will need replacing? How easy is it to do? I watched the video on the Hope site and it looked easy enough but I don't have a vice. Have replaced the front bearings before which was pretty easy. Tempted just to take it to LBS this time though.
Also, any point asking Merlin/Hope to sort it out? Has had around 6 months of moderate use but that did include a week in the alps/doing the Mega.
