N.Wood Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 Right, i'll presume you know how to crack that little hoare apart. If not, it's on the Hope website and plastered all over this forum with a search Once it's apart, lay all the pawls and springs on a bit of cloth and make sure they're safe. With WD40/GT85 in hand, blast all the shite from the pawls/springs/ratchet ring. Clean them up with the cloth and use a degreaser to clean them all up shiny if you like. Then get some chain lube (Tri-Flow or similar) and squirt a little onto the ratchet ring and spread around.You can use a small dollop of grease on either end of the 3 springs to help them seat to the pawl/ratchet body correctly. Reassemble and you're done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
