The dropout bearings (7) should be renewed periodically
to ensure best performance, or if they become damaged
during use. An indication of damage would be excessive
play or loose feel of the seat stay dropout connection.
The bearings (see inset) can be inspected without
removing them. With the pivots removed, rotate
the installed bearings. The bearings should be free
of corrosion, fixed firmly in the dropout and rotate
smoothly without a gritty or loose feel.
It is best practice to renew all the parts ring clips (6),
bearings (7), pivots (5) and spacers (4) with new ones
when service is required. The bearing pairs in each
dropout are retained by two ring clips which are seated
in a groove.
The small end of the spacers (4) fit into the bearings
before connection of the seat stay ends (8).
