TrialsGilly Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) basically got a hope xc built onto a 26" try-all rim. When i was riding it felt like it was sort of loosening up inside, and now the wheel jsut goes round and round even though it sounds like it is engaging. I took it all apart and think that it is the shell inside the engaement points that is spinning when it should be fixed. as the point sound like they are engaging fine.Anyone know how i can remove the shell ? Or how I can fix it , ir is it just a write-offThanks for any help Tom Edited October 2, 2008 by TrialsGilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 sounds like the ratchet ring has stripped - send it back to hope - its a write off .... on the plus side they used to do this sort of fixing for free ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psycholist Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Don't tell them it was used for trials unless they ask though ... Or you could go with the honest option of coming clean and admitting it was used for trials and asking for a discount on a trials hub instead of replacing with the same hub again (That's what I'd try)...
