Where in Cape town pref Tokai side can I find a service kit for a 2 Pawl hub

 

What are you looking for? Exactly? I lost one of the prawls on a wheel i was servicing. Luckily Marc from Crown Cycles had "some spares". I can also check if i got old spares laying around

I am actually looking for that little circular spring that holds the pawls.

For some unknown reason, mine is warn down on the one side and thus bends easily and lost all its elasticity.

 

I will contact Crown Cycles on Monday. Thank you for the information.

Yes. Had a Scott with the same issue. I McGuyver a very strong keyring but lasted 1 ride. Marc supplied me one of those spring problem solved. Give him a ring....

 

Cool good luck

I bet it isn't worn, but rusted. Those hubs have really crappy seals and water that enters easily eats away at that very rustable carbon-steel spring. If you look with a magnifier, you'll see it is rusted.

 

I just make them. Go to an airplane hobby shop and buy yourself a length of 0.5mm piano wire and bend one.
