6.2.1: EXTRACTION OF BEARINGS
Tools required: Whyte KP5AX or KP6AX bearing press tool
6mm AF Allen Key
10mm AF Spanner
To remove the Bearings (4) from the Link, Seat-stay or Chain-stay Body (3). Assemble the
parts as shown in figure 17a. Using the 6mm Allen Key and 10mm spanner, tighten the as-
sembly together until the bearing (4) is pressed out of the mating component (3). Repeat on
all other bearings.
6.2.2: INSERTION OF BEARINGS
Tools required: Whyte KP5AX or KP6AX bearing press tool
6mm AF Allen Key
10mm AF Spanner
Loctite 638
Before inserting the bearings, make sure all the components are clean from dirt and have
been thoroughly de-greased. To press the bearings (4) into the mating component (3) apply
a small amount of Loctite 638 to the outside diameter of the bearing and to the inside bore of
the mating component (3). Next assemble the components as illustrated in Figure 17b. It is
very important to make sure the bearing (4) and Bearing Insertion tool 1 (3) are squarely
seated against the mating component (4). With great care, slowly tighten the M8 Socket
head cap screw (6) with the 6mm Allen key and 10mm Spanner until you can see the KP
bearing (4) being pressed squarely into the mating component (3). Once the KP bearing is
fully seated an you can no longer tighten the M8 Socket Head Cap Screw further, undo the
nut and bolt and remove any excess Loctite from around the KP Bearing, particularly in any
internal threads. Repeat for the remaining KP Bearings.
IMPORTANT! Allow 24 hours for the Loctite to totally cure.
6.2.3: REASSEMBLY OF SHIELD WASHERS / SPACERS
Tools required: SKF LGEP2 or Castrol Spheerol AP3 or Finish Line Teflon White Lithium
-Complex grease
SKF LGAF 3E” or “Castrol Optimol T” Anti-Fret Paste
Apply a good quantity of SKF LGEP2 or Castrol Spheerol AP3 or Finish Line Teflon White Lith-
ium-Complex grease on top of the Bearings. The grease should completely cover each bear-
ing and be applied on both sides of each bearing when it is in the swinging arm component.
Assemble the shield washer components (Items 2 in figures 13, 14 & 16; items 2 & 3 in fig-
ure 15). If you have applied enough grease, it should spread from under the shield washer or
spacer components as they are positioned. Wipe this excess grease away from around the
shield washer or spacer components.
APPLICATION OF “SKF LGAF 3E” or “Castrol Optimol T” ANTI-FRET PASTES
Once the link & swinging arm components have been assembled correctly, either SKF LGAF
3E or Castrol Optimol T paste
must be applied to all outside faces of the shield washer com-
ponents (Items 2 in Figures 13, 14 & 16; items 2 & 3 in Figure 15) that contact the Main
Frame and Swinging Arm. It is additionally recommended to apply anti-fret paste to the mat-
ing contact surfaces on the Main Frame and Swinging Arm.
