Our 300D had bad vibration when braking up front and so I checked the bearings, the grease was burned and the bearings were scorched as well as very loose/falling apart. I put in new bearings and grease and it rides MUCH better now....that was an accident waiting to happen.

The bearings were completely discolored from heat. Pretty scary!
