G-baby158 Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 You dont need to take the lockring off, take the wheel off the bike and pull on the sprocket and it should just come off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) You shouldn't need to clean your Profile unless it's real old or you've been riding through loads of mud. I'm guessing you have the Mini 3 piece female race axle fun bolt model? Yeah i'd thought i'd emphasise that just a bit to make sure your using the model i think you are.Undo bolts, pull off cones/ collars, pull out driver, knock out axle.The shell should be left with some bearings inside still. Knock them out using the axle and a mallet. The driver should just pull out, no need for knocking. Driver bearings may require knocking out also. That should be it. I think ProfileRacing should have a documentation on it too.I use 3in1 Oil for Ratchet lubricant. Some sort of Lithium grease for the other moving parts. That's what i use, but others and Profile may recommend others. Personal preference though.[edit]If you really feel not competent with the service, Tarty should do it for a a fiver. It really does only require a bearing and driver inspection. Edited February 2, 2009 by eskimo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Ah right il try your idea.Edit! Also on my zoo python 07 can i run chain tugs or not?Depends on dropout size, hub axle size and chain tug size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke_zoo Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Depends on dropout size, hub axle size and chain tug size.Dont know the drop out size but hub axle 10mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Ok, put it this way, if your dropouts aren't overly long your struggle to get a chain tug on there tensioned. The chain tugs available aren't really suited to greatly for trials frames and they often don't have enough 'wrap' around the end of the dropout either.

salasbalingy Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Edit! Also on my zoo python 07 can i run chain tugs or not?I have an 07 Python and the droputs are too short to use chain tugs if your using 18:12. Your only option is really snail cams.Hope this helpsSam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
