Hub bearings and rain
I have one wheel with a standard hub with cone bearings (that came with my Cube Nuroad bike), in good shape (in a sense it doesnt have play), and I open the hub ocasionally, clean everything and regrease (I use lithium grease) and the wheel is fine in the dry , however after the ride in rain, you get this grinding noise from the wheel (when you turn it stationary and listen).
1. do I use the wrong grease (lithium) so the water penetrates?
btw, I looked at the rubber rings on each side of the hub and they should definitely be replaced.
2. do hubs with cartridge bearings withstand water from penetrating better than cone bearings?
