Trying to follow the advice in Hope's How To video, but getting stuck at taking the freehub out 🙁
[url= http://www.hopetech.com/page.aspx?itemID=SPG219 ]Here[/url] is the video ("How to - Rebuild a rear Pro2 hub"), it shows the "action" at 50secs in - anyone know how easy it should be to disconnect the freehub like this? It looks very easy when this guy does it, so am I struggling because
a) my hub is still in the wheel - does that make it harder?
b) I'm just to weak 😳 ?
Thanks for any tips!!
the kaesae 2p method
The instructions from cyclistno1 are pretty good, which may offer up extra help/clues:

If you're hub is still in the wheel, you could try reattaching the cassette and giving it a good pull. That 2p method looks pretty genius as well!
great, thank you both for your quick answers!! back off to the garage to have a go...
if you are going to do the bearings, the Hope 'drift' kit is worth it
