Should be lots of youtube videos on that sort of thing too.
I looked at a couple before working on the old Raleigh that I had posted
about.

Should be easy enough, fresh grease and play adjustment will probably cure

I remember some discussion of bicycles on here recently.
Yesterday after a ride Angie complained that her bike "felt funny" on
inspection I found the rear hub has about 1/8" of play... This is a "Free
Spirit" 10spd probably from the early '80s or late '70s. Looks like it was
probably sold by Sears, looks just like:

So I've done some Googling and the hub rebuild looks pretty easy though
I've got to get in there and see what kind of tool I'll need to get it
apart. I'm thinking to pull it apart, grease with some Mobil 1 axle grease
and reassemble. Looks like some hubs have adjustable free-play, hoping
thats the case here...
Thoughts? Is M1 a decent grease for the job?
