Nothing sticking grinding or dragging. Just wondering if anyone else is having or has had this issue.
Just spray the bearing out with denatured alcohol (Methylated spirits here in Aus) or motor spray to remove any of the grease that comes from the factory and relube it with a very small amount of one way bearing oil (I used Team Much More high speed bearing lube and it works just as well). You need to make sure it is not overfilled with grease or oil as this is what causes it to slip. The grease is needed from the factory so the bearing doesn't rust before it's used.
