PaRtZ Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 OK I know its stupid but has anyone tried riding with only 1 set of bearings in a profile mini hub? Im getting them replaced but I was wondering if I should go out tonight without them or not Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brisa Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Bearings stop the flex and its usually flex that causes fudged ratchet rings etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nb88 Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 No dont run the hub without a full set of bearings... and you can get replacements cheap if you phone profile directly. I got a driver, bearings, and pawls and springs for cheaper than usual by doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nb88 Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 The driver wasnt too cheap at £40 (still cheaper than retail though) and that came with lockring but no cog. Bearings were around a tenner for a full set if i remember correctly, pawls and springs around a tenner aswell. Give them a ring as it was about 9 months ago (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
