Have you ever experienced a noisy freehub that ruins your peaceful ride? Im dealing with this issue right now - a loud, persistent clicking noise is coming from my freehub, and its driving me crazy! Ive tried cleaning and lubricating it, but the noise remains. Im curious to know if anyone else has encountered this problem and, more importantly, how you resolved it.
Ive seen a few suggestions online, such as replacing the freehub body or the pawls, but Im hesitant to take apart my hub without a clear understanding of the problem. Im also wondering if there are any long-term maintenance tips to prevent this issue from recurring.
This brings me to my controversial question: is the freehubs noise a common issue among cyclists, or is it just me? Should we expect this level of maintenance with our hubs, or are there better options on the market? Id love to hear your thoughts and experiences on this matter.
Lets get the conversation started and help each other keep our rides quiet and enjoyable. Please share your stories, advice, and suggestions on dealing with a noisy freehub. Im confident that together, we can find a solution and maybe even prevent this issue from happening again in the future.
