Mark W Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Same old same old - the grease in the sealed bearings oozes out after a while (usually a month or two), quietening the freewheel down and reducing it's reliability by 'sticking' the pawls down.Strip 'er down, clean 'er out.Thread about it in the FAQ/Wiki.

Muel Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 it's an ENO in theory shouldn't but all the people i know who have had one skip like a bitch get a tensile Same, I known 3 Eno's for several months at a time, my solution, buy a Tensile, clean out the grease and use WD40, then run it in carefully. It will last for ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Follow the thread in the Wiki as OBM said. I serviced mine last week, found 3 little pieces of metal sitting in a ratchet, which was causing it to skip every so often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrAsHeR Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Dont think its worth making a new topic but my try-all starter skipping too.I would like to service it but I know all the balls of the bearing comes out when opened.So is it actually possible to service a Try all freewheel ?If yes is there any instruction or advices ?Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve@banbury-trials Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 1.So is it actually possible to service a Try all freewheel ?2.If yes is there any instruction or advices ?1.it is possible,just make sure you open it up over a tray or pot so that the bearing dont roll everywhere.2.i havent seen any,but its fairly simple too,hardest bit i found was puting the bearings back in,wasnt impossible just a little tedious.hope this helps,steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
