    Looks easy when it's a fresh clean hub. End caps on a used hub wouldn't budge without excessive force having to be applied resulting in some damage being caused to them, only managed to get one off but enough to remove the shaft and tap out the old bearings. Now trying to strip the rear hub, Free hub body was stuck on the shft and could only be removed by driving the shaft using a drift and hammer from the free hub side through the hub body. Now trying to remove the ratchet with Scribe ratchet drive tool but will not budge. Tried gripping in a vice and using wheel as leverage but will not move. Its been a nightmare trying to strip these hubs, and I do think that's partly due to poor assembly and a lack of grease being applied to the contact surfaces. Video is useful in showing how the hub is assembled, but if you think its going to be that easy to get them apart...think again. May put me off buying scribe wheelsets again as other hubs I have serviced have come apart easier. Time will tell if I manage to get the ratchet out, if I can't then it's impossible to replace the bearing meaning a decent wheel is scrap. Also what about the free hub bearings can they be replaced? Looks like you can't take them out, but if you can an explanation how would be good.

    ​@ryanmercer7804 I eventually got it free myself, but only after using a heat gun.

    Hi there, how do I change the bearing of the FRONT wheel? I’ve tried with the 5 or 6 allen keys but they don’t work. Thanks.

    I always heat the hub body with a heat gun before fitting or removing bearings. 130 degrees c I don't like hitting bearings, too much to go wrong!

    So does your Scribe Scribe Duty Wheel set have 28- Front, and 32 hole Rear straight pull hubs?

    @@ScribeCycling I had a look at your website and the photos of those wheels appear have 20 spokes front /24 spokes rear.... Your straight pull hubs look like Koozer, but with DT Swiss style ratchet internals.
