    Question regarding front hub/wheel

    Alright, new problem. Got son a new (ebay) front wheel and hub. His hub spins good. A good full turn each time I spin it. The new one we just got, only spins 1/4-1/2 turn each time. I assume the faster one is better or? His old hub will not match up to his new wheel :?

    TIA

    new bearings with fresh grease and good seals will have more resistance than old worn out bearings,,,,

    to be safe, you should just replace the bearings.jmo
    The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

    Does the new one rumble?? Does it feel smooth??

    When you say the old one spins one turn, do you mean that the trike wheel is off of the ground and you give it a big spin?? If that is the case It should go around more than one time.

    I forgot to ask the last time, why are you replacing?? If the bearing is smooth, then there is not a problem.

    The new wheel came with the hub, and the old hub will not mount on the new wheel although, they look the same, they are off a pinch, weird. Different years maybe? Both are gold rims.
