Hello, and thanks for any insights here from the community. I am knee deep in swapping a 35mm front end into the 76'. This morning I removed the old 34mm forks, and trees. When I rebuilt this front end I had installed the All Balls Racing tapered bearing kit.
Question of the day, might anyone have experience removing the lower bearing? I found an All Balls video showing replacement of the bearings... but they destroyed bearing to do so. There does not seem to be much purchase available for a puller, other than on the bearing itself.
Not a major crisis, but was hoping not to have to buy a new set of bearings. Has anyone ever swapped the tapered kit from one stem to another?
Thanks all!
