Sidmouth Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 I took the cassette off to clean only to see that the Freewheel hub has wore groves, which has actually caused the remainder of the cassette to stick, if this initial wear common/normal on an alloy freehub
David Marshall Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 It is common on aluminium freehubs. Use the chain whip to back off the stuck gears to remove them and file down the sharp protrusions before putting the cassette back on
rouxtjie Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Yip normal....don't worry about it....is what it is.
Sidmouth Posted January 10, 2014 Author Posted January 10, 2014 OK thanks I feel better about it now, I had a metal one previously many more miles and not a scratch.Will it eventually wear right through?
