Description from the creator

I show how to overhaul a cup and cone hub on a rear bicycle wheel. I take apart the hub, clean all the parts, install new ball bearings, repack the races with marine grease, reassemble the hub and adjust the cones. I also show removing and install the freewheel.

Most front hubs use ten 3/16" balls on each side; Most rear hubs use nine 1/4" on each side.
