- The freehub body this simply slides off the axle. When removing ensure all six pawls are in place and seated correctly.
- Make sure you retain the silver spacer behind the freehub body this needs re-fitting before re-installing the freehub body.
- To service the freehub mechanism clean the ratchet ring and the pawls of the freehub body with a dry microfibre cloth and lubricate with a thin layer of lightweight grease.
- Fit the silver spacer onto the drive side of the axle and the freehub of your choice.
- Push the adaptor/end cap back on to the drive side of the axle.
- Ensure that the adaptors are fully pressed home to ensure proper fit and prevent any lateral play.
