|
Looks like the schematic for the Ultegra WH-6600 gives access to service free ball bearings. I was told by my LBS, however, that these wheels have a sealed cartridge and the entire cartridge gets replaced!$&@#. Which is right? If the former is the case, it looks like I will need a new 20mm bike wrench to get the inner retaining nut loose. Does anyone know if this is correct?

If you look at the schematic it is not clear what the bearings ride on. Is it their own cartridge? If so, do I just buy the cartridges and then do the lock nut adjustment as I would on the old cup and cone? Also, are the cartridges available usually at well stocked LBS ?

For anyone familiar with servicing Shimano products, the cones on which the conventional bearing balls (seventeen 5/32" balls in each cup) orbit are conspicuous. The right cone is located on the axle where the enclosed numeral "5" on the service diagram points. The left cone is integrated with the inner part of the "left hand lock nut unit" (number 7 on the diagram) as noted by mr beam earlier in the thread. > Is >it their own cartridge?
