Have a cheap Schwinn lost rear hub bearings. Running stock sprocket with the rubber inserts dont care for them. Looking for a solution. I only got 120 miles out of the bearings. Does anyone make a diffrent set up that can be used to drive the rear wheel? The factory set up is garbage and makes me nervous the way it drives of the spokes.

Thxs, Judd

You have at least 3 options,

1. Buy a HD hub laced to a double wall rim with thick spokes
2. Use a Disc mount, 36 spoke wheel with a kings sprocket
3. Get the clamshell adapter on a new wheel

Search the vendor's adverts for these parts

Or you could just buy the HD wheel set and then purchase one of Jim's hub adapters with the sprocket. Which I guess technically is a clamshell adapter of sorts.

Thxs Jim talk about dangerous. I almost bet I have the same problem. I will tear it down later today. I just know that there is diffenitly some sort of bearing faliure by the way it sounds.
