    adjusting a front wheel bearing in a 2000 model

    hey just thought i'd ask is it the same as most makes get to the hub and tighten nut put back together or do i have to worry about sensor and what not ?
    its only a bit of movement which in most things justs requires a tighten up or are disco really british ??

    No, they are modern, which means the bearings are not servicable. If your bearings go you buy a new hub.

    Maybe, before you turn tomorrow into a drinking day, you should do a search on D2 wheel bearings or hubs.

    I vaguely recall someone (it may have been 'Redback') did pull a D2 hub/bearing assembly apart - not sure if he got it back together again though.
