Thanks Mike! I will be moving my bike shop soon, so that might be the last one that I film in that setting. I bought the house next to me, and pretty much using most of it for doing video related stuff. It should be a lot more room, and better lighting. That little corner of my basement is dark and cramped, so hard to get good camera angles.

I don't have any through axle bikes. I've never ridden a fat bike. Unfortunately I've had this problem before on a GT mountain bike, back in the mid 90's. At the time, I took it to my local bike shop to fix. I now do all my own repairs. I really appreciate all the good repair advice. Most of the local bike shops where I live won't have this part in stock and tell customers "well have to order that". Or tell customers to, "just buy a new wheel". Please keep up the good work. Thanks.
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 Год назад
Thanks for watching and the kind words bicyclist! In the 90s, you probably had a Freewheel (I believe that's what they were called) which had a ton of tiny balls that engaged the ratcheting action in the hubs instead of the pawls in this type. I have rebuilt some of those in the past. I'll make a video if I come across a friend's bike or maybe tear down my vintage Cannondale prophet. I believe that it's the only one of my bikes that still has that setup on it.

Thank you for making and posting your video. I just had the same thing happen when I went riding last night. At first it was kind of skipping gears and I was thinking that the derailleur wasn't lined up. Then, later in the ride it was doing the same thing your bike was... I was pedaling but not going anywhere... Sigh... Good thing it was mostly down hill back. I didn't know what was going on and then I came across your video. Your video really helped me out!

When I came back from the dust storms at Burning Man, drove through a day of rain, then ignored the bike for the next six months, I had a different problem. My free hub had turned into a “dead hub” and wouldn’t spin in either direction. I didn’t have the right tools to remove the cassette, so I took out the quick release axels, picked out what Playa dust I could, then laid the entire wheel down flat - with the cassette soaking in concentrated vinegar overnight. By morning, it would turn, and crunch a little bit! I exercised it under water to remove the remains of rust, and gave it a good shot of WD-40 to keep it from flash rusting. The Shimano hub looks almost new, and I just need to get some thicker mineral oil inside to replace the WD-40. Nice video - now I’m thinking about doing some maintenance on our other bikes!

Well-described, thanks. Good teacher. Now I may have a use for a 12mm Allen key for bikes! And I did not know that what I called "cogs" (like a Cog Railway) were referred to as "pulse." Note however that at about 4:53 in the vid the caption says, "This is a Left-handed thread. Lefty loosey," while it is actually Righty-loosey as you are indeed doing in the video at that time. Years ago in ignorance, I remember being perplexed when I tried to remove a pedal from the left side of a bike, but at least most pedals are marked with a L or R at the end. Yet you can tell thread direction by looking at them: if it slants to the left is it is standard right-handed thread, and vice-versa.
@firstmkb
@firstmkb Год назад
I didn’t see it on the left handed nuts in the video, but the standard for LH nuts is to have a notch cut across the corners, at a right angle to the axis. The first pace I remember seeing them was on oxygen lines, because you do NOT want to attach those to acetylene tanks!

How to improve stopping, general things to check etc I have replaced pads, sanded the disk brakes, (rotors) but not impressive stopping power. Not bled the system from when a I bought the bike in 2012, as brakes are not spongy

Thanks Sophie! I had made a couple disk brake videos in the past.. One for stopping squealing brakes, and one for replacing pads. If you go to my channel page they should be on there. They are older and not as well produced. I learn something new about making these videos on every upload. I will probably make another better brake video the next time that my brakes need some attention. I appreciate the kind words.

This is just what I was looking for - great video! One question - do you have a video that goes a step further and removes/cleans the bearings after you take the freehub off? I've got a very similar hub, and was looking for videos on how to disassemble and clean it - none of the videos I found (until yours) had the same freewheel, so this was super helpful! I would like to take the bearings out and clean them too though, so if you have any videos on that, that would be awesome.

Hey, thanks for being so meticulous and detailed even for the close ups. i have been thinkiing of chaning my Shimano 3-pawl system to a 36/54T Ratchet like the DT ones without changing the Hub. is this possible and what parts or kit do i need for this ... ? Would appreciate your response.
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 8 месяцев назад
Hi John, thanks for watching and the kind words. I personally use DT Swiss star ratchet on my Santa Cruz tall boy. In my opinion it is the most bulletproof out of all of the free hub ratchets. I don't know this 100% for sure, but I think to go with that type of free hub, you may have to change your wheel hub to accommodate the star ratchet setup. Another thing that I recommend to people because they are economical to purchase aftermarket parts that are good is to go with the Shimano HG type driver instead of Shimano micro spline, or SRAM SD type drivers. I downgraded mine to a 10-speed sort of like Seth from Berm Peak used to do, but regardless of how many gears, there are many options in 10, 11, and 12 speed cassettes that you can get on Amazon for 50 or 60 bucks instead of spending an arm and a leg for the SRAM or the Shimano micro spine. I have one of those on my Santa Cruz that I paid 48 bucks for 4 years ago and it's still running strong. They may not be as lightweight, but they definitely hold up. Sorry for the long winded response. I hope this helps.

@@themostlymikeshow2582 Wow! thanks for the prompt response and its ok it is detailed.

Been considering a Conversion Kit(Don't really like the Pawl System) just not sure if they would fit as i saw the internal Gear and got a cautious before i commit. As for the After Market Hubs, would you have one that is ratchet based you can recommend..?
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 8 месяцев назад
@JohnKatiku I have never really looked into hubs like that. I was always going to learn how to lace spokes, and bought a lot of tools to do it. After I seen what a bike shop charges to lace a wheel, I decided to let them do it if I ever got it done. To this day I have never had a custom wheel built. In my star ratchet Hub on the Santa Cruz tall boy, I tried replacing it with an aftermarket that had more teeth and it stripped on the first ride. The seller accepted the return and I've been running the DT Swiss brand for 4 years. I never get that long out of pawl type hubs. Industry nines are supposed to be really tough with more points of Engagement, but there's other things I'll spend that much money on before I get them. I also heard that the spokes are aluminum and they corrode in climates like we have in Pennsylvania dealing with road salt. It's getting harder and harder to buy new bikes with these older systems with economical parts. The 10-speed Shimano derailers are even economical to buy since I've downgraded from 11 speed. I can usually get them brand new for around 50 bucks for a Shimano XT.

First off, thanks xDi for the kind words! I will try to hunt some stuff up later tonight, and get back with you on what you will need for those Hub specs. That one that I had was made for a formula brand hub,(that may be what the FH in your part number stands for) and Cannondale had actually put a part number on it, which ordinarily adds to the price. I was lucky enough to find mine as New Old Stock on eBay and got a deal on it. I think it was about 32 bucks if I remember correctly. I would definitely hang on to your old one if you buy new to keep as a serviceable spare.

Hi Mark. Thanks for watching. I'm sorry, but I'm not sure without seeing it. I've had the cartridge bearings break in mine before which caused lots of play, but it actually made the entire cassette rock sort of axially and radially... Plus it made lots of noise. I'm guessing that yours isn't making noise when you ride it, but just a little play? Sorry that I couldn't be of more help on this.

Great video. Questions: When you sprayed degreaser down into the hub at 7:30 didn't you just wreck the grease inside the bearing? Shouldn't you clean and grease the bearing? Thanks
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 Год назад
Thanks for watching John. That was a pretty mild degreaser, and I didn't leave it in there for long. The bearing has a rubber seal on it, so if any of the degreaser had gotten into the bearing, it wasn't very much. This video was made three years ago, and I haven't had any issues. I would definitely use caution and not flood that area with degreaser, and use one that isn't real strong. Really, it could probably just be wiped out with a rag if there's any fear of damage. It's getting greased again anyway. I hope that this helps.

Hey Mike! Excellent video! Couldn’t find another video out there showing freehub failure on the trail. One of the most important parts of understanding the whole ball of wax. My failure was the smallest cog on the cassette stripping the splines on the freehub! This failure was on a 3 month old bike! An online bike store no less! Any idea what would cause this?

Hi just came across your content i thought it was very well articulated for those of us less knowledgable it was easy to follow .My question ,is it possible to change the free hub to a different type ? i have a 2x9 speed trek mtb and i was thinking for my terrain extremely hard up hills i would like a 1x12 i am unsure if i can convert this bike ,i would like to do this myself ! My weakness is my inexperience in knowing what parts to buy etc my local shop is saying i may need a new back wheel that may be true ? i woild like to just ask if i can change the free hub for something more accepting of 12 speed ?thanks
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 9 месяцев назад
Thanks for watching and the kind words Stephen. That's not a real easy question to answer. If you look at the Hub itself and get the manufactures part numbers from it, then go to their website, they may provide a list of compatible free hubs and the range of cassettes that are compatible. I always preferred Shimano HG free hubs whenever possible being that there are varieties of economical cassettes that work with shimanos HG splines. Converting to 12 speed will involve derailers as well as the shifters themselves. I hope to make a video on how to set up a derailleur from scratch in the near future. If you're familiar with the berm Peak Channel, Seth just did a video a couple weeks ago which it's very helpful for setting up a brand new derailleur and showing what screw adjusts what. They can be frustrating at times even for advanced mechanics. I know this reply hasn't been really helpful, but I hope it steers you in the right direction.

Hi Mike, my current fat tyre size is 26 x 4.0.. and the stock GroupSet Shimano Tourney 10 speed is ready for replacement to 12speed type. In order to replace to 12speed either Shimano or SRAM, do I need to replace the Wheel set (wheel rim, hub & spokes) or just the hub itself??
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 3 года назад
Hi Mohamad, if your freehub is compatible with your wheel hub, you can just use a freehub that is set up for 11 or 12 speed cassette. Yours might be good for that, but I wouldn't know for sure. Keep in mind though, that you'll have to change out the shifter and derailleur as well. If the big cog on the new cassette is over 42 tooth, depending on your derailleur cage being short, medium, or long cage, you might need to install a "goat link". I might make a future video on goat links. I had to install on on my Santa Cruz Tallboy. I hope that this helps.

Hi Rahul. I am not familiar with Polygon Premier 5,or what hub it has. It sounds to me like the grease might be a little too thick for the hub, causing the engagement points to hang up from the thickness of the grease. Without actually looking at it to see what it is I might recommend getting it flushed out with solvent on the insides and instead of using Grease, I would use a light weight oil to lubricate the points of engagement. I hope that this helps.

My cassette recently stopped spinning freely when coasting. There was a certain point in the wheel's revolution where the cassette would "stick" to the wheel. I suspected something was gummed up inside the freehub body. However, I haven't for the life of me been able to get the darn thing off, even following your video and numerous others. I can get the cassette off and take the axle out without issue, but the free hub body acts as if it's welded on. You pulled yours off by hand; I tried a pair of vice grips and still couldn't get it off. Any ideas what I might be missing?

@themostlymikeshow2582 2 года назад
Thanks for watching Jordan. I'm thinking if the bike is that new, it probably isn't an issue with the pawls, especially if you haven’t been riding it hard around punchy steep climbs. A lot times on new bikes the cable tension requires adjustment, usually needing more tensioning. I usually back out the barrel adjuster and keep track of how many clicks, so that if it doesn't improve, or gets worse, you can return it to where you started. Without actually seeing what it's doing, I am kind of guessing at this point. I hope that this helps.

Hi Dal, I haven't really noticed much, except maybe an occasional skip, but that could also come from the derailleur being out. Most of the time mine just failed, but one time I was able to ride the rest of the weekend. When it did that, it was sticking and when I would coast, it would lightly engage the chain, so if I took my feet off the pedals, it would spin the crank. When it did that, if I tried to pedal backwards while coasting, the chain would come off. I hope that this helps.

It's a Shimano freehub body, but instead of the pawls, it has the DT Swiss star ratchet. I'll have to tear it apart and maybe make a video about cog bite if that's the case.

It has been well over a year, and several hundred miles later, with no issues. Not sure if it's the preferred method, but it got the gunk out of there. That was one of the Lesser produced earlier videos of mine, so there were mistakes made, like I don't know if you noticed, but I said Lefty Loosey on the part where I talked about a left-handed thread.

I'm sorry, but I don't really have a lot of spare parts around, but also, not sure what it would take to fix. I looked up some review videos of the Schwinn Ascension and there's a pretty good RU-vid channel that works with Schwinn bikes a lot. It's called "Wolftick Videos". They seem to be really up on Schwinn stuff. I hope that this helps. Tell them that I mentioned their channel to you.

Hi, I want to change my shimano hg body to sram XD, do I need a new hub or can I just buy the body?
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 3 года назад
Hi Sam. I actually did the exact opposite in this video and went from XD to Shimano HG. You can get the XD driver body, but you also need to order both end caps to make the spacing correct. I used the XD end caps on mine, but I had to make a 3mm spacer to give the correct overall width. I am at work while I am writing this, but I believe that the name of the place that I ordered the parts from was www.amaincycling.com I will try to check when I get home to verify that it was the place that I ordered the stuff from. Those parts are pretty hard to find. I hope that this helps! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching. Do you know if your bike has cartridge style bearings or cone bearings? Cone bearings are the ones that have two Thin nuts right where they go against the frame that take up the slop in the bearings.

Hi Alan. I believe that on one side or the other, there should be a place for a hex (Allen) key. It might be a different size than the one in this video. It's actually pretty hard to see them sometimes. It may be left hand threads. I hope that this helps.

Thank you what causes the hub to get loosen? There is no way to tighten it up which causes my cassette to be loose. The axle is packed with new grease & wheel doesn't move only the cassette.

Only if the four pawl freehub is compatible with that internal gear ring in your hub. You would need to research the number of your hub to if there's one available for your model. I hope that this helps.

hey asking a question but not expecting a happy answer. Anyway my rear wheel on the bike moves 1 cm to each side when i peddle its pretty fucked but the wheel seems fine (I can't see any dent etc...) I mostly think its the freehub or the cassete because my cassete is fixated more to the left then to the right. So I was wondering do you think getting a new free hub would fix the issue. Just a heads up I still need to buy the tool to remove the cassete and the freehub but didn't have time to get it. But still wondering since a replacement cassete doesnt seem really plausible at this moment for me.
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 3 года назад
Wow! It could be many different things. If you are not pedaling the bike, and you grab the rim... Does it rattle the 1 cm that you mentioned? If you grab the cassette the same way, does it rattle side to side? We need to figure out exactly what is moving to avoid spending money on stuff that you might not need.

Great work! Is it possible to still use an 8 speed Shimano freehub (Shimano FH-RM 35 QR) for a 12-speed cassette that uses Micro spline? also, can I still use a 3X drivetrain on any rear derailer as well?
@themostlymikeshow2582
@themostlymikeshow2582 3 года назад
Thanks Athish! My new bike has Microspline, but I am new to that type of hub. I do not think that they are compatible, not just because of the Microspline, but I believe that the freehubs are made in different sizes of freehub for different categories of cassette speed numbers. As for your second question, I believe that a 3x drivetrain with a front derailleur should work. I really don't see any reason why it wouldn't. The larger chainrings would definitely take a longer chain, so if you are converting it from 1x to 3x, I would recommend having a new chain on hand. I hope that this helps.
