Just picked up a cheap set of second hand wheels.
Unfortunately, the rear M756 free hub is running a little bit gritty. Can it be serviced / fixed or do I need to get a new free hub body?
Name of a cheap supplier would be appreciated.
Ta!
Lx hubs at on one for £15, cheaper than freehubs.
cynical-al
Not cheaper when you add in a wheel build!
Could I take the free hub of the LX hub and fit it to the XT?
T
yeah most likely
Pretty sure it will, which was my point.
I'd remove the freehub then pry off the rubber seal on the back and flush it through with a solvent ...wait till dryish (use hair dryer if in a hurry then drip in a light lube . certainly worth a try.
