Front Hub Seals


Recommended Posts

Is there an alternative to the original type felt seals used behind the front wheel bearings?

Something a little more, dare I say it, modern like a neoprene seal?

 

Cheers!

There are modern equivalents that may vary by region (Chicago Rawhide here in the US) but really, this is not a notorious failure point and any variation in the felt thickness can be compensated for with periodic adjustment, something we should all be doing anyway as I suspect this area is a neglected part of the annual maintenance schedule for many.
