streetjibs Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 well its probly nothing new now but got about 5minutes of riding in today before a loud snapping noise ended what would have been a mint sunday arvo ride ripped the 06 pro2 rear hub shell apart in one smooth preload before a wheelswitch. Anyways im aware that hope is great to deal with and that they are aware of the problem with the hub shells and the new 07 ones are better. My main concern is i bought the hub from chainreactioncycles and im not sure whether to muck around dealing with them or go to HOPE directly??Keeping in mind i live in Australia and post/time/hassle etc id like to keep to a minimum... Thanks for any comments advice on a speedy hassle free warranty claim!!danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Manning Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 (edited) UNLUCKY! PROFILE FOR THE WIN From what i'm aware of from mates having this problem, if you send the hub back with a letter explaining whats wrong with the hub, then Hope should replace it, as most the '06 version's broke, and so Hope have been replacing all of them. Thats why they've done the '07 version. Hope this helps Edited July 1, 2007 by 223_leeson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 hi geez, send it to me and i will get a replacement off hope for you if you want.il take it over as il be over that way at some point, then i can send it back to you, if you can JUST send the "hub shell" no bearings or owt, it will be easier. and cheaper on P+P.you Bro Waynio.
