Beartraps

Thejackal:
I have recently won a pair on flea-bay.

They don't seem to run quite as smoothly as I thought they would. How easy it is to take them apart and re-grease them etc? Is ther a (repro) kit available?

Similarly, with the cages will they buff up? Can I get some more NOS ones?

In total fairness to the seller, they hadn't been described as perfect or NOS or anything like that.

Thanks  :daumenhoch:

meticulous:
are they hutch beartraps?  mine are velvet smooth....     but thet are nos i suppose....    :daumenhoch:

MartyC:
If they are Suntour beartraps then they are as easy as a normal pedal to strip and re-grease.  Pics would be a good starting point  ;).

Thejackal:
They are Hutch bear traps. They feel/ sound a bit gritty when turned.

If I knew how to upload pic's, I would................  ;)

pkradman:
