    BTW i think you should all take note that on the saturday just gone a 12 year old boy had to be rescued from the rocks after getting stuck so people have been warned to stay away from the sea defence rocks. I think youl be very very lucky to get away with riding the rocks.

    Soz to put a downer on things just thought you's should know.

    .Hub spins real smooth now & has no wobble side to side or anything

    .Well there has been afew times that when ive had the driver out 1 or 2 of the pawls push in then the spring piece moves round so it has no spring to push the pawl back, but im thinking maybe when the drivers in the hub shell the spring has no room to move round but i dont know?

    (this is why i was guna buy a new set but cant believe the price lol)

    .Its just had 4 brand new driver bearings and was all cleaned out then i used a tiny bit of 3 in 1 oil.

    .The ratchet and pawls ect all seem o.k, just the fact that sometimes after pushing them in afew times by hand they do get stuck in.

    Is it a known thing for a profile hub to skip as i thought they were ment to be very reliable, only mine is skipping afair bit like 5 times in about an hour sesh,

    also if i replace the springs & pawls then surly there cant be anything else causing the prob can there?, as the chains running fine on front & rear cogs and its defo not the BB thats making the loud clonk.

    Sorry for the kinda noobie question but i dont fancy laying out for new springs/pawls if there is something else that i could try.

    Cheers Ash.

    anyways if you wana find out the differances between the two have alook at the geo of the 07 on tartybikes then the geo on the 06 which can be found on trialfutur, and then you will have your answer.

    I brought this from Quackers and his feedback looked good, but i wanted to see what peeps thought before i contact him as i know nothing about these hubs, but im sure that bearings shouldnt be in quarters :S. and i cant see any parts on tarty that look like what i need. unless whats pictured is the remains of a sealed cartridge bearing?
