DT Swiss X1900 Front Wheel Bearing Change 

Thanks alot for this video, this is excellent, super easy to follow and you covered everything! By far the best video on this available. For anyone wondering works for E1900 front also (same hub I believe).

I just replaced the bearings.I also worked with minimal tools.I swapped four on the back and two on the front.Your video confirms I didn't do anything stupid.I love your videos, lots of good ideas. Thank you.

ah mate you absolute legend, could swear it was the end caps as banging them back in tight sort of fixed the side play in my front wheel, alas it was a bearing change needed as even though they spun perfect they developed sideways play pretty badly after a ride or two again. "Blah, blah you gotta use an official DT mechanic" Nope! fixed it perfect. From one good ol brizzle boy to another thanks a bunch, this was the ONLY video I could find that sorted it perfect. Good job man.

As a fellow instructor, these videos are concise, the steps are clear, and I love that you also take the time to warn of places you might make mistakes. Well done!

Thanks for taking the time to do this for us. Well done, mate!

Thanks man, this was excellent! And as it turns out, these bearings are the same as in my linkage, so I already had a bunch of them.

Thank you for this detailed view for every single step. However, the removal of the old bearing could be tricky. Again, good advise in regard to grease in so many steps to finalize the job. Great! Thx. R

Cheers for the video, helped greatly for my first bearing change 👍🏻🍻

Thank you sir! I really appreciate your videos, and your methods.

Thanks for the tutorial.

Great video, nice step by step explanations, keep on going like this! Cheers!

Thank you 🙏 Excellent video

Thanks for this video. Was really helpful.

Nice! Now I can try that without having to buy 100+ EUR worth of special DT Swiss tools

Thank you very much! This helped a lot

Thanks for the trick.

Tremedously helpful, thank you.

You advise to use the best quality bearings, any suggestions? What did you use?

Can anyone confirm the bearing? In the video it says ‘61902’ - but in the description it says ‘6902’. The ones I just removed were 6902, so I replaced them with the same - but there is a tiny bit of play - is this normal - or is a 61902 bearing required? Thanks.

When should this service be made? every 5000km or so? or only when you notice issues when spinning the wheel?

on my dtswiss m1900 when i turn the left bearing, turn automatically also the opposite side bearing with the throug cilinder (spacer). it is all stuck or it is normal??? thanks so much

Is it unsafe to have a wobbly wheel

Does this also work on a Novatec D791SB fronthub?

What is your experience whit this non-axle design? Only the preload (and friction) holds up with the perpendicular forces to the axis, this does not seem to be a reliable design to me.

Does m1700 hubs has the same bearing with x1900?

Thanks for the video, really helpful. Do you have a part number or link for those exact bearing for DT 1900 wheels.

Great video. Do you find you get lateral play in the wheel with this type of hub?

Great video. Just tried it on my own bike, but seem to be stuck at the part where the collar has to be moved enough, to be able to throw a punch at the lip of the bearing (04:05). My collar won't move that much and just seems to be sliding back to the center again - could it be different on an M1900 wheel for some reason? 😞

Umm. Even when I’m pushing it aside, I get a tiny fraction of a mm lip, which it’s impossible to hit with anything ? 😕

Are bearings on both wheels same diameter and width?

Hello, how did you manage to extract the caps to access the bearings. Thank you very much for your videos, I just discovered your channel

What size socket do you use?

what tool did you use to remove the end caps?

These bearings 6902 is the same measures for the rear and front? In case 15 x 28 x7? please correct me

Why is there so much free play in the end cap's
