Stupid question. Googled and can't find anything..
I have sold nukeproof electrons that are making a horrible noise. I wanna service them. I remove the Allen key outside bolt and then the internal one but now how do I get the axle apart from the pedal body? There's resistance to sliding it off?
There's a nut on the end of the axle- usually a 10mm or 9mm, you need a pretty small socket to get on the end of it.
As a quick fix, you can fill the end of the pedal (where the outside caps you've removed go) with grease, and then put the cap back on and tighten it down- as you tighten, it'll push the grease right through the pedal, you should see manky grease squish out of the other end past the seal. You can repeat this if you want to keep cycling in new grease. Basically you're turning the pedal into its own grease gun. Not as good as a proper service though.
That's great. I'll have a go later with a brew.
as he said its a 9mm nut, serviced mine only yesterday, nice and simples!
Thanks GC. Pretty obvious now someone has pointed it out.
Filthy.. so going to clean em properly and pack them full of grease and hope for the best.
Not serviced pedals before. Quite a fun job.
