I have several .pdf files for bearing and freewheel maintenance that I can
send you; 3 files in total. FWIW, I got them from the french Mavic website

Is the email addy shown legit? [mine isn't]

The thing about the cold is that you can never tell how cold it is from
looking out a kitchen window. You have to dress up, get out training and
when you come back, you then know how cold it is.

You may want to contact Park Tool to see if they have any information.
Their online repair manual shows instructions on servicing rear hubs
from Shimano, Campagnolo, DT-Hugi, Bontrager, American Classics, and
Cane Creek:

They even have instructions for the new DA 10 model 7800, not model
7700, rear hub:

Good Luck!

Dear Mike,

You may be able to find pdfs that describe what you want to do on this
Mavic site, where the login is "mavic-com" and the password is
"dealer":

http://www.tech-mavic.com/tech-mavic/

Click on English, do the login and password, and choose products.

The Kysriums are under road and triathlon, and you can page down to see
pdfs about bearing adjustment, freewheel replacement, and so forth.

Why Mavic hides this stuff behind a login and password is a mystery.

Cheers,

Carl Fogel

An even bigger mystery is why dealers too have to keep up with
newsgroups to learn of the dealer website 😉

An even bigger mystery is why people continue to but Ksyriums.

Last weekend, I was the volunteer wrench at a charity ride. I came
across a few wheels with "problems":

One Alex "something-or-the other" rim laced to a nameless hub. Rear, 36
spoke. Loose left spokes. Inexpensive wheel on an inexpensive bike.
Trued up nicely, with even tension.

One Bontrager paired spoke "something-or-the-other" rear, "rebuilt" by
a dealer after a rear hub flange had torn out. The guy was too big for
the wheels, probably why the flange failed. But the dealer really
messed up the rebuild; spoke tension was all over the place.

One Ksyrium front, squeaky hub. Axle felt smooth, but it chirped like a
canary.

One Ksyrium front, slack spokes. Probably unusual.

*Three* Ksyrium rears, slack spokes. Not so unusual, it seems.

Carl,

Your info was spot on! Thanks!!

Pop the left side axle end off...8mm allen in that left side
hole...find the flats. 5mm alen in the right side-left-loosey...remove
the right side axle end and gently take the freehub body off...over
something to catch the pawls..clean all. pry the seals off the cart
bearings, grease in there. Clean inside of freehub and seal and OIL
all....I use Mobil One..reassemble.
