rab shropshire Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Just wondering if someone can help me out with my eno problems. Here we go lol. When the lockring is off or loose it works fine, but when I tighten the lockring up one of the pawls doesn't engage and it doesnt run smoth and it is very hard to turn. It has recently had new pawls and springs and I have regreased the bearings. also what tool do you need to get it of the crank the tool i have fits other freewheels ie try-all and viz but not the eno. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orgun_Donor Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 How do you know just 1 pawl doesnt engage? cause they go in pairs...I also had an issue with it seeming really stiff after i changed the lock ring.... i just rode it though and its been super duper since, only took one day of riding to be back to normal again and has bee running flawlessly ever since.

Would not having the o-ring make any difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget what I said, you should have 3 short paws and 3 long paws, and they should be placed alternating. So one short then one long and so on. That might be your problem.

Take them all out, place them next to each other and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Sometimes when its tight to turn but all the bits are put in there properly it's because the plasticy seal on the crank side isn't pushed in properly. It comes out when you take the ratchet off, and you can usually get a screwdriver or your finger to push it back into place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
