Hub Leak?
Noticed one my my wheels has “gunk” all over it. The cap on the end is missing (already ordered a replacement). But, I’ve never dealt with this sort of thing before. Do I need to add more grease?...

Took the cap off and this is what I found:
That metallic color looks like a serious problem. Unless a grease with an ingredient causing the color was used, the bearings have failed.
Just do a complete cleaning, inspection and repair as needed. These things need to be serviced the day they are purchased and regularly thereafter. Consider using quality bearings such as Timken.
