Do the spindles have grease fitting or not? The photo containing everything shows fittings, but some of the reviews indicate no grease fittings.

Yes! They come with grease fittings; however, this set does NOT come with the spindles pre-greased. Make sure to grease them up before use.

All three of mine came with grease fittings. As Vincent Puopolo commented, they come with sealed bearings, so I don't see the point of grease fittings. I greased them anyway, as it may help dissipate heat.

They are sealed bearings no grease fitting, they usually last a year as long as you don't hit things. Reply bearings are cheap and easy to instal, I broke my hub so I had to by all new

The spindles I received did not have zirc fittings on them. Most of the time the bearings are a (s2) which means both sides are sealed. It's useless to pump grease into a spindle that has sealed bearings.

The one i purchased did have the bearing it was pressed into the pulley already. mine worked great & was a quality oem part.

It has grease fittings and welded ends. a simple part to change. It was an exact replacement part for my craftsman 14hp mower.

I would say yes. I have not seen grease coming out of bearing, unless I added grease (usually molly type in the past). The reason I swapped out was to lower the noise level of my metal garage door. The nylon rollers really quieted the noise.

They do have grease where the joint is. Be sure the rubber boot is covering the joint.

B. Williams says:I purchased the Giant dual fit the first week in June. I absolutely love it. It's quiet and the flywheel is much smaller than the airdyne. I have been using it since I bought it and have not seen any grease at all. I suggest you locate a schwinn dealership near you to check it out. That's where I purchased mine.

Yes, that is the same part number as mine and yes this spindle has sealed bearings and grease fitting. The same basic spindle with a grease fitting.

If in doubt check with JD. I found by dismantling my existing spindle assemblies, the bearings were worn out. Bearings were cheap and simple to replace. New spindles did not come with mounting bolts.

dont remember if it was packed with grease I am sure it had some but you will have to grease it rule of thumb is to fill with grease till it pushes out of the spindle it will come out of the bootom first hope this helps.

The machines are really easy to dissamble and service, only issue is messing with grease. Parts on Amazon are quite cheap, do a little Google to find service info.

They have grease "zerks" so they grease themselves during use, but I greased them when I installed them just to be safe.

It does come with some grease in. As I installed I add just enough grease to see some emerge from gaps - its is not a certain amount of pumps. Wipe with rag and should be good to go.

The spindle with single pulley comes with pulley, the double pulley does not come with pulleys.

Basically older bikes have ballbearings in the fork tube. This is an alternative that consists of sealed bearings so there's no fuss with grease.

My research found that the only thing they changed on spindles was the addition of grease fittings. Try them always send them back
