This is one sorry rear bearing caliper side -- my suspecions were aroused when a trike rust was on the caliper hanger so i ordered new bearings before opening her up

the needle bearings fell out everything was full liquid rust

the needle bearings are bastids to get out best of times and this was no different took a hour with Mr hammer

well all back together

so when you do a tyre change take loose wheel from time to time so you can see the state ya bearings are in cause tyre bays wont tell ya thats for sure
