Rear Wheel bearing advice please.

[MikeBennett]

Hi,
I think one of My rear wheel bearings is starting to get noisy. Are there any special tools needed to replace the rear bearings like ther are for the front ones?
Thanks for any advice on this,
Mike.

Rear wheel bearing replacement is quite an easy job with no special tools being required (unlike the fronts which is definitely NOT diy)
I changed both rears only to find the noise was from the tyres - as have a couple of other club members. It's probably worth swapping tyres round just to eliminate this.
Think I may even have a good used bearing going cheap if you are interested
