Rear hub sealed bearing size?
Can anyone tell me what size sealed bearings I should order for a standard 700c rear wheel? Can't find a measurement online for the life of me.
Any recommendations on what to buy would be appreciated too, was looking at Phil Woods possibly but open to other options
Cheers

All depends on the hub. The existing bearing should be marked with a size (6802, 6902,...). You may need good light and/or magnification to see it.

Ahh i see, thanks mate. Was hoping it was just standardised because i don't yet have a cone wrench or freewheel tool to get the stuff off to see the bearing they are on their way in the mail, guess ill just have to wait and ride on the crunchy bearings for a while longer

Like I explained to someone recently at the shop it is standardized but there are a ton of different standards so it doesn't really matter. Take the hub apart and measure or take it down to your local bike shop and have them measure and order you the correct bearings or get better wheels that list the bearing size.
