well my cube is a month old, and the bb has seized, i freed it and repaked it, but at a month old i think this is bad never washed with pressure washer or hose directly, so not water ingress it was as dry as a nuns foof, do you think i should contact crc as i got the bike from them or go to cube for a new one as its now a bit rumbly i thought i was just off colour as i had a job peddaling up some bits this weekend, it was when i was cleaning the bike i noticed it was not pedaling backward very easy,at all you had to push it lol

Hope bearings are expensive to replace too as there a specialist size. |

If it's the bearings, wouldn't it be excluded from the warranty?
I'd still get in touch with CRC either way.

you may of voided any warranty by cracking them open to re grease.if its a cheap option yourafter the shimano ones are on ebay for around a tenner, used a couple on my boardman, can get them for under a tenner. other than that splash out on a hope.

My riding buddy had an issue with the bb on his fritzz. Got changed under warranty then it went again and changed again. He did buy from LBS and they fought his case but definitely contact them about it.
