They should run smoothly and provide the lightest possible ride feel. Maintaining the hubs and axles is an absolute must for racers and pleasure bikers.
CARE HUBS
Step 1: Lubricate axle bearing

Lubricating the bearings is usually only necessary for Shimano hubs. If your hub has a "centre lock" mounting for the brake disc, you should remove the brake disc. Open the hub lock. Remove the lock nut, spacer discs and bearing cone. You can then pull out the axle. Remove old grease and dirt from the bearing surfaces and balls. Then reinsert the balls and coat them with a fresh grease pack.
