Good video, you can service cartridge bearings when needed a little pick to pop seals, haven’t had to do it yet . Will last you longer between services than the cup n cone on your rear wheel.
According to DT Swiss service procedures, the end cap should be put into vice with soft jaws and the whole wheel should then be pulled swiftly. This works without scratching anything.
Any chance youve found a video of this being done ? I have 641frobt hub and I feel like it's got the same system as above but no matter how hard I tweak on it it won't budge
@@farfrompkin yep. I followed this procedure and it works. The end cap was stuck tight so I had to pull fast to get it out. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--Wde2goI3Cs.html
Thx for sharing your experience 👍 But the best way to remove bushers and end caps is to use a bearing puller 😉 Too much scratches with a screwdriver🙁 If you don't have a bearing puller, you could use a Dynabolt 👍 first, insert Dynabolt in the busher/end cap (not too deep in the bearing) and tight it. Then, flip the wheel and insert a rod across the hub onto the Dynabolt and knock it with an hammer to remove Dynabolt with the busher/end cap. You could use same technique to remove the bearings 😉
Would you recommend these hubs? I was thinking of buying the DT Swiss 240S, but then I noticed the D791SB with similar weight to 240s, but a quarter of it's price
"Boosher." First, thanks for posting. Liked. I just got one of these, the dh61sb. Think I'll try a piece of wood to pry those puppies out. I sorta cringed at seeing that screwdriver do it. Happy landings!
Clive Weir this was tricky on the previous Novatec 771... there is a bush/spacer inside but it doesn’t push apart sideways far enough to get to the back of the bearings .. as I was replacing the bearings anyway I destroyed one to get it out.. the other was easy as I took out the spacer first.
You need a 19,5 mm pipe , 200 mm long , split with a saw in half about 60 mm , opened circa 4 mm , and introduce from the opposite side in the bearing , you should be able to hammering out , it help if you have an electric hot air blower gun , heat the hub (the alu rotor) witch will expand in circumference and diameter ...

The metal in the cap is pretty soft alloy, you will damage it with the corners of the screwdriver even if only very slightly, did mine today after watching this. Good explanation but
