skyway cassette repair
stevepeanut:
that looks similar, but I still cant figure out how to get mine apart
CD17:
The first steel hub Skyway Tuff lls had these cassette hubs, you can get replacements, or as I have done in the past, fit a Suntour coaster, the body is the same as the coaster shells :daumenhoch:

Here is mine stripped..may help
Not sure if mine is exactly the same as yours but here goes...
Both sides.
If you take the left side apart the cog doesnt need to come off.
This is the only item that showed any wear.
Otherside is then released.
When you pedal forward the threads on the ooojit push the thingy in to get drive,obviously a little magic happens and elves and fairies are invloved.. :2funny:

Wazza this is the same reply as on RB but put it on here too, might help other people who are stuck
Wazza, many thanks for going to the effort of stripping yours, but unfortunately mine is not the same.
I removed the axle, mine came out similar to the front wheel. Slid out the axle and nothing else moved. Here is the non sprocket side. The bearings sit in this area. This "cup" appears to be pressed into the star shaped hub. There's no way its moving or coming out.
Next the sprocket side, above the sprocket, yours has 3 notches I think (cant see the rear), mine has 8.
Circlip removed and the sprocket lines up with the notches and slides out.
This is what I am left with. There are 2 small hole marks. This looks like if its turned, it should come off, there are tiny bearings under it. I cant tried turning it left and right and it will not move. I don't know if its a normal thread of left hand thread but either way it will not move at all. Even if this bearing cover did come off I am not sure how I can remove the outer hub.
Discostu:
here is your answer. :daumenhoch:
