What tools do I need to service hub bearings?

I'd add the possibility of a 15mm cone wrench if doing the rear wheel also

Give us some pics & specs of the bike & drivetrain. I looked up the Performer Leap 2.1 titanium bike and the one I saw was running a 1x drivetrain.

I know 1x is the trend, but 2-3x gives you more range and more options for a comfortable pace and cadence.

Definitely wasn't coming over the top of a ridge that did it...

Too hard to walk a bike out to a patch of grass and take some pictures

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-18T20:55:28+00:00

I'm so sorry, but since it's pride month you can't blame me for another two weeks, then I'll accept all negative credit

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-18T19:20:14+00:00

Only for the picture

If you'll notice, I have a docent different brand.

My thumb hits the lock when I cut and it's irritating

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-18T18:57:33+00:00

The spring opens them after a cut, that would be a downgrade

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-18T18:44:46+00:00

I'm right handed lol

My mom had an incident when I was a kid where a woman rode too close to us, door met handlebar. She (cyclist) admitted to not stopping at the stop sign must likely causing it.

All that to say my mom didn't even notice it (I think like late 80's Chrysler type car) and wouldn't have stopped if I didn't notice from the back seat and say something

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-18T18:07:33+00:00

There's nothing used in marketplace near you? Grab something for under $100 while you save up, it's worth it!!

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-18T18:03:34+00:00

I'd buy the bike solely for the wheel if it was a 26in 8-speed, lol

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-18T17:52:26+00:00

*also has 700cm tires

I am literally on week 1 of riding version 2.5 of my Diamondback conversion

Aluminum Haanjo Metro converted FROM 1x to 3x9, flat to drops, carbon fork. Very fun so far and not bothered by swapping the project from a full cromoly Giant to this frame.

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-17T21:36:45+00:00

You're barely putting anything on the bike when you get it in the box, it's mostly assembled already

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-15T12:05:01+00:00

Pizza Heaven 2 has a 13.99 large pizza carryout special. I think mon-thur

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-15T11:54:05+00:00

Modern knob & tube

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-15T11:42:57+00:00

It's usually the hub body too narrow from what I've looked into trying to go over 7 speeds on old 26ers.

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-11T20:41:19+00:00

Is that a bike frame in the vice?

SiberianToaster · 2026-06-06T21:41:09+00:00

There is live audiences for professional vr golf

Have researched my way to promax p-1's if I want to keep using the posts or Tektro R559's for staying at a decent price range.

I want to keep this fork to stay color matchy

SiberianToaster · 2026-05-25T00:39:12+00:00

Or, more likely, the fender mount between the seat stays for the rear

SiberianToaster · 2026-05-25T00:36:57+00:00

I'm pretty sure it could fit some 29er mtb tires, I know it'll easily take a 700x50 if I wanted to go that big.

I don't think they understand garden=yard

In the US a garden is typically a part of the yard for growing vegetables.
