Topic: 550 & 750 wheel bearings???Same??

[JS550]

Picked up a set of 750 wheels & want to put the rear on my 550. Are the bearings the same?

[OldSchool_IsCool]

Probably not, but just in case, what year is the donor wheel and recipient bike?  K or F?  You can also look up the part numbers on various parts fiches to see if all suspect part numbers match.

The 500 / 550 rear hubs use 2 wheel bearings: 1 x #6302 (15x42x13) and 1 x #6304 (20x52x15).

The 750 uses 3 bearings: 2 x #6304 (20x52x15) and 1 x #6305 (25x62x17).

rear 500 uses 1 x 6304 and 1 x 6305
rear 750 uses 2 x 6304 and 1 x 6305

front both use 2 x 6302

So yes they use the same bearings but in different quantities so the wheel spindles should be same diameter meaning from that point they should fit.

THIS IS FOR 750 WIRE WHEELS

[JS550]

Yes, its wire wheels.
