Have at look at the hub and see if there is a rubber seal at either end, if there is stick a screwdriver behind it and spray in some GT85. Used to be quite common on low to mid range wheels.
As long as you only prise off/out the seal using the screwdriver... DO NOT stick the screwdriver into the hub!
Redmeat - check the wheel by means of a visual inspection, and see if the squeal sounds when a particulat spoke is in the vacinity of the ground. Then look at the rim/ spoke area and see if a squirrel, hamster or mouse is attached. If so, remove it and administer first aid.
Good luck and blue skies!
That's twice you've made me chuckle at the breakfast table this morning... thank you for brightening the start to my day!
I would imagine that your bearings will be drier than an Arabs sandal. Get the hub serviced.
make and model of wheel or hub ?
