Dear Charles:

It would really help if you would write your query in complete

have lots of room on the screen and our attention spans are actually
fairly long.


Or at the very least, try to compose neat bicycle haiku:

"Used bike--SIS!
Shifts great, with silent clutch hub--
But now, how to lube?"

We don't usually ask for epics or even epillia here. But where data is
lacking, poetry is always appreciated.

This is what I think you were saying -- please let me know if I got it
right:

"I have purchased a used bicycle. It is my first bike that uses SIS.
It does a fine job of shifting. I understand it has a 1-x silent
clutch hub. I have searched throughly on the web trying to find out
how to lubricate it, but I fear I have phrased the key words
incorrectly, because I haven't been able to find the information I
seek."

My recommendation to you is to write out what you want to know more
completely, perhaps with the brand of the bike and the components as a
part of the post, and then, since this appears to be a mechanical
question, to post it to rec.bicycles.tech, where you will find a
collection of gearheads eager to help you with your problem.

Enjoy your new bike!

Warm Regards,

Oh, I get it now. I was thinking he had bought a bike for his older sister
with LX deraulers or something.
