Tartridge Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Got a manual with it? Should be most stuff you need to know in there... http://www.whiteind.com may also be of use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 As far as I know, the only literature you get with it is a little bit of paper with how to strip the minx down. First of all, two questions - do you have the trials freewheel? Secondly, which part is loose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bionic Balls Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 i think "light oil" on the springs and pawls is the recommended....grease up the bearings while you're at it though... adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalopS Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 dont suppose your chains the wrong way up? i made that silly silly silly mistake :huh: Still skips even if the chains the right way up, oh well might get a profile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 thick grease will eventually turn to goo and mean the pawls can't spring back into place, i made that mistake with my ACS and payed for it with my knee cap. :huh: very light grease and a good clean will help :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minitrialer Posted February 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 no its the right way. . its an actual freewheel skip not chain on cog skip. . any way thanks for advice i think i will use thin lube i got from work today!

If you ride through crap (aka trials), then any hub or freewheel is gonna need some servicing! even profile and hope.... They are a piece of PIE to take apart and rebuild- you can't even lose the bearings cos they are pressed in place. stop whining! they are worth every penny! adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
