Wore out three sets of tires already!
Hello. I'm looking for advice on the best practice for tuning up my bikes. I'm currently rejuvenating a pre-war CWC Roadmaster with a New Departure model D hub. The last New Departure I worked on was from my '55 Schwinn Spitfire. It did not have an oil port so I used Park Tool PPL-1 grease on all the bearings and WD40's High Temperature Grease for the disc brake area. I liked the WD40 high temp grease. It came in a tube for my grease gun and was a lot softer than some other high temp grease I have found. On this New Departure model D there is an oil port so I'm thinking "oil it", Right? My thought is anything with an oil port needs oil. Even the bottom brackets with an oil port? What about those 60's Komet hubs, etc? I don't want to have to do anything twice. Thanks for your thoughts.
