{{fa}}The [[Add Bearings to a Skateboard|wheel bearings]] sit between a cone screwed to the wheel axle and the cup in the wheel hub. They must be properly adjusted and greased. To find out if they need greasing without taking everything apart, simply remove the wheel from the bike, support the axle horizontally with your fingers, and turn the wheel <i>slowly</i>--try not to tilt the axle as it rotates. If the wheel does not turn smoothly or you can feel tiny bumps in your fingers, then you must dismantle the bearing assembly and service the bearings. | {{fa}}The [[Add Bearings to a Skateboard|wheel bearings]] sit between a cone screwed to the wheel axle and the cup in the wheel hub.
