Anyone tried servicing a pair of the Look 4X4 Eggbeater knock-offs? Is the roller bearing
- the inboard one - replacable and if so where would I get a replacement? Or am I better
off servicing as best I can and reassembling?
I assumed they'd be 'just the same as Eggbeaters' but I can't even pop the spindles out!
It actually looks as though there's some kind of retainer holding (and maybe sealing)
the outboard bearing, and the axle won't budge. It may be that part of the bearing has
fused to the spindle and a sharp whack is all that's needed, but OTOH this could be a
design feature and I just need to follow the correct procedure.
Cheers, Gareth.
