Meine Frage wäre, ob du zukünftig immer auch die verwendeten Fette mit aufführst?! Für die kleinen Kugeln sollte man eher ein Fett mit Öl und evtl PTFE als Mischung nehmen.
This is the coolest repair I have seen on the web for years. I´m bicycle mechanic for 27 years in Germany and have not worked at one shop, which has done these repairs ever, but for my personal choice I have done this kind of repairs since the late 1990s . A true mechanic tries on his/her own and then rides their stuff - what else. Working reality in Germany after the 2000s is boring as hell - it´s mainly about earning money quick and dirty ! That´s because high technology equals in high costs for less work !!!

Thank you for your interesting comment. In the modern world, such work can be done only for pleasure, as it will still be more profitable to change everything🐱.
When everything's working as it should the spacers keep things tight enough to roll smoothly without binding. But as the races wear down due to use or insufficient, the wrong kind of or dried grease, the spacers need to be slightly thinner to keep things smooth, otherwise play develops which accelerates wear. The trick is to find thinner spacers that aren't too much thinner. We're talking tenths of a mm here. I had to fabricate my own spacer out of an old washer as I couldn't find the right sized one. Worked great and all play is gone with very smooth action. Btw, best to oil and not grease the pawls as they might stick if it gets too cold. Grease is for the ball bearings. Also would be nice to let people know what solvents you used to clean everything. I used mineral spirits.

Mystery metal again. I couldn't figure out where it came from. That wouldn't be the first time. That happens with these mystery hubs. I've found that grease mixed with automatic transmission fluid ( 1 part grease 3 parts ATF.) works well it will keep tha pawls from getting sticky and stays inside. You can use grease for that race at the base of the free hub. Some on the pawls and ratchet ramps and place the outer over it. Throw someof the mixture in the outside race put the remaining bearings in and cover with a generous amount more. That will last a long time and the detergents in the ATF will keep it clean. That mixture works well in shift levers and any kind of derailleur/brake pivots. Keep up the good work 🙏.

I have 28 hole 9 speed HG hub and now I want to use 7 speed 14t - 34t freewheel instead of HG cassette... So how it possible without changing the hub? Or should I change the hub to normal single speed hub ... Is the freewheel compatible with SRAM XD driver... ? Because I want to use 3x7 setup where's 28t,38t,48t crankset 170mm with 14t to 34t freewheel 7 speed. Please help me

Excellent video work. When you tighten that outer bearing cup (L.H. thread), do you just bottom it out until it feels very snug? I'm guessing there is no chance you'll over tighten it and crush the bearings because of the shims, right?

Is your freehub body also held in with a 12 sided screw? I was trying to remove it with an 11mm hex but it wasn't moving. Then I did the same thing as you and just serviced it while it's still on the hub.

they used wrong grease for the pawls, that green one from Shimano is for ball bearings only, it's way to heavy and too thick for the pawls , they will seize in couples weeks time. There is a different white/translucent color grease just for pawls, it's very thin, nearly oily consistence

3:21 if you removed freewheel from hub on beginning, now you should not fish balls inside of hub, btw your spokes are laced on wrong way , you can see spokes that have cut by chain, that spokes are most loaded on wheel-transmit your power and weight and good wheel builder knows that spokes must be inside of hub to prevent that chain cut

Hello! Do you know the technical name for this type of hub? I'm in need of the piece you removed at 1:37 (mine broke), but I don't know its name, and whenever I Google "Shimano hub", or "Shimano freehub", I only can find the more modern type, which only need a big allen key to disassemble... Thanks!!

I don't think you can buy that piece at all (it's called the "bearing cone"). You'd have to buy the whole freehub but even those are no longer available from Shimano if that's your brand. You might find one from a supplier online that has some unsold inventory and replace that freehub completely. I bought a spare hub from a community bike shop just to have a spare freehub before they become altogether unavailable.

@@borisnot, you're asking about wheel hub itself, right? If there's no name imprinted on the outer shell, then it's anybody's guess. However, they probably used a freehub from Shimano. You'll have to go to a bike shop maybe and ask them. And you never know--they might even have a spare bearing cone laying around if they're any good.

Free hub bearing cone. No chance of buying one of them, fhb spares are unavailable as they are not intended for service. Even if you could find one it would be pot luck on the thread size and intended bearing size etc. Replace the entire unit, they’re very cheap. If the hub is unbranded it’s most likely formula.

Well I'm no cyclist but I do have to repair the damned things, so my question is what do they call that infernal spring that holds the pawls in place, can I buy them and would the pawls work without it, cleaned up while I wait for ebay to show up? So technically that's 3 questions but the quality of your audio speaks volumes compared with the 12 utube vids I just seen. Well done. Subd!

Thank you for your comment. Pawls will not work without a spring It's quite difficult to find such a spring ring, we remove them from used freewheels in our workshop. Sometimes you can find repair kits ring + pawls from novatek on sale. I also read that a thin guitar string is used to fix the pawls, but this method has not been tested.
