I've got an American Classic MTB 105 front hub (17mm axle) and I can feel a slight amount of play plus the axle spins so freely that I suspect there's not much grease left on the bearings. I can't find any info at all on the Web about servicing AC front hubs and would appreciate a little help.
Do I just put the round axle end in an axle vise and unscrew the hex nut on the opposite side to remove the axle? Will I then be able to just pry open the seals and repack with grease or do I need to pull/replace the bearings? If so, what's a source for bearings at a reasonable price?
TIA
