Put new bearings in the wheels.

The sprocket carrier has a bigger bearing (around 65mm) and I didn't have a socket big enough to lay on top to tap in. Bought a cheapo bearing installer set from Amazon (cheaper than a socket that size) and it took seconds to get the bearing and seal in. Well pleased.
