Every time I change a flat or otherwise pull the wheel on one of my Rohloff hubs, I notice about a
drop of oil hanging on the shift box before I detach it.
The other hub is new - unridden until an alternative torque plate arrives - so I can't
compare the two.
Two concerns:
1) This is awfully close to the disc brake's rotor and a drop of the stuff gone astray could hose
the rear pads.
2) That oil is coming from somewhere - and I'm guessing the drop I see is just the latest in a
series of same that just fall off every so often.
Some kind of seal problem? Normal operation?
