2022 RS160 wheel bearings

[Paul C]

My rear wheel bearings feel rough. Does anyone know the correct size ? And best ones to buy ? Surprised they feel bad because milage low for garage and never had a hose on it.
Link to vid on how to change be handy also please
Thanks in advance

Might be worth filling out the contact us form on the Whyte website if no one here has an answer.

Whyte normally rebrands fairly simple hubs from Taiwan. My 160 is older and not XD, but simple enough to get apart. Pull the cover off one end, that has hex inside so you can hold it. Flats on the other end, undo that (reverse thread), remove freehub and drift the axle out.

I have a couple of bearing suppliers near me. I just turn up with the old ones and they sort me out.

If you are the original owner I think the bearings are guaranteed for life so Whyte may send new ones.....but you will have to fit them...or my LBS did for small charge.
