Sukoto Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Hello EveryoneI'm new to bicycle trials. Been gathering components for my first trials bike over the last seven months and I'm just about finished. After reading good reports (mostly from TF members.) on the hope Pro 2 trials hub I had my rear wheel built up with one. This is the first hub I have ever used that is lubricated with oil instead of grease. how often should i be servicing it? Thanks in advance.Sukoto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abtrials Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 to be true mate they never rellay nead servicing, you will know when it does though, it will start to skip slightly or feel rought (dont worrie they dont do a full rotation when they skip) other than thet just take it apart every once in a while clean it and service it they are so low maintanence!

coolbeen Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Hi there as the person above said they don't really need it because they are not like Chris kings that need it like ever month or something like that. But you can tell when they do need to get it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris13 Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 so how do you service a hub and get it to stop skipping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
