Help! Brompton-fu weak
My Brompton-fu is weak today. I am reassembling the (Sram) rear hub
and having trouble getting the bearings right. There appears to be no lockring or locknut on the drive side, so what stops the freewheel bearing cone from becoming nurdled? Has anyone stripped down a Sram recently and can tell me what I am doing wrong? I have the exploded diagram from http://www.sram.com/_media/pdf/sram/dealers/DTM_GHS_E_99.pdf but it's not helping. Thanks, Guy -- http://www.chapmancentral.co.uk/urc | http://www.nohelmetlaw.org.uk/ "To every complex problem there is a solution which is simple, neat and wrong" - HL Mencken Newsgroup may contain nuts. |

Ah, worked it out. The clue is in "fixed cone" - slack the drive side off, torque the fixed cone to 20Nm and all is joy and quiet tick-tick.
