Today I'm tackling my first bearing replacement and learning to install and remove bearings using a variety of tools, everything from a bearing press to bearing punches and even a blind hole puller. With Macky's help I'll be installing some Enduro Bearings XD-15 hub bearings in my DT Swiss 180 hubs. This is the same process for DT Swiss 240 and 350 hubs (and a similar process to most wheels) so come along and let's replace some bearings!
