So I got the front wheel off, no problem, really easy.
However, when I pulled out the axle I found a light coating off grease on it.
Shouldn't the axle be dry and clean so the pinch bolts will hold it tight?
Perhaps it was some excess grease from the bearings and got onto the axle as I pulled it out.
Should I re-install the axle clean and dry, or greased?
