The bicycle dynamo hub is awesome because it generates power as you ride, making it a self-sufficient energy source for your lights. No need for batteries or charging - just pedal, and your lights stay on! You may not be aware though that just like any other wheel hubs they have to be serviced regularly to keep your wheel spinning with minimal resistance.
So in today's video, I'll show you how to service a Shimano Nexus hub dynamo.
