Think my rear hub needs a seeing to. For some reason the freewheel doesnt engage like it should.
Whats the name of the chap on this forum who can do a service?
I think it was Chris Echiler (sp). Anyone know his email?
Cheers

Have a look on the CK website, the full service instructions are there, the basic service doesn't need any special tools, you may get away with that, but it sounds a bit like your ring drive is fubar through lack of maintenance, which could end up costing you £60ish just for the parts.

There was a guy in Leeds called Eichler or similar. I needed help and e-mailed him, but got no response. I bought the tool and now do it myself. Quite simple really. Happy to have a look if you're anywhere near NW. (FOC!)

Cheers Fagus but probably wont be up your way any time soon!
will check the CK webbo out and have a look. At first I thought that as it was wet that it have got partially frozen (it was very cold at 9pm on Houndkirk last night!). Will strip and see.

Thanks again!
