I plan to rebuild them after new year. To those who regularly service bicycles, do you expect me to find much grease inside the hubs once I open them? :-P
Happy New Year

Being Deore (LX ?? equivalent) I would imagine they would be sealed hubs, at 2000kmm that would be nothing. Just clean them up, I wouldn't bother pulling these apart. (if you can ??)
Most Shimano stuff was built with planned obsolescence in mind. (If they look really stuffed on the outside replace them, which usually means a new wheel unless you can relace spoke wheels)
