Cassette hub maintence

<< < (2/3) > >>

Philbert:
only a drop of oil though. too much and you'll be slipping the freehub when you power down

SaMAlex:
I greased my driver ... a tiny bit. It made it so nice and quiet. BUT it almost slips now. Not much, just now and again when you lean on the pedal, it clicks. I need to clean it out and OIL it.

Think I,ve had that happen a couple of times crank just seems to slip/drop an inch or so than catches and go's, hear a noise at the same time.

Philbert:
that'll do it!

the best option i've found is to give it a quick spray with a teflon spray, gt85 or tf2. as it goes tacky and won't run away. but won't goo up the internals. my odyssey cassette was last done about 4 months ago and hasn't slipped once. it works a treat!

Used Snap-On air oil, nice and light lubed and quick wipe. Will see how it goes at the weekend.
