Agreed. No particular brand but I've got a bucket of generic wheel bearing
grease from some autoparts store that I've been using for years.

Your brake linings look good Jenya, just clean them up. I use compressed
air in the hub when I take the rear wheel off.
I use a little fresh grease On the final drive. Any wheel bearing grease
I wipe the axles clean and then just a real thin wipe with the same wheel
bearing grease to prevent any rust or corrosion.

So took the rear wheel off. Few questions here:
1. Should I repack the final drive with fresh grease? And which brand
should I use?
2. Should the rear and the front axle be greased and with what?
3. Please look at the picture attached and let me know if I need to change
the break pads - i have about 5mm of pad material left. Looks kinda new...
Much appreciated as always,
jenya

 If anyone knows of any good shop around me - let me know.
 Otherwise I'll be doing it myself.
 And yes, I'll be getting a set of both the front/back just to be safe.
 I was looking for an earlier thread on the tires and can't find one -
 can someone point me to it? Thanks again,
