A few questions:
Is there any link available which explains in detail how the nexus hub
gear works? If not, how about hub gears in general, as I presume it is
not a million miles from the old Sturmey Archers?
I have seen the manual on sheldon's website for stripping down one of
these hub gears. Is there any place where this manual can be purchased
or otherwise downloaded? The manual says it is volume one. What is
volume two?
The shimano website appears to have nothing more than a fully detailed
diagram but no service instructions - I can't be 100% sure because it
keeps seizing up my computer when I go on there. Is there any other
documentation available on these gears from Shimano?
The diagram and the manual on sheldon's page recommends the use of
shimano grease and special tools, and part numbers are provided. Can
anyone recommend an internet supplier that is used to ordering
specific and relatively obscure parts off shimano - my lbs's are a
waste of time - do you think wiggle would be up to it?
Apologies for all the questions, but the hub will be due for its first
5,000 km strip and grease in a few weeks, so I want to get as much
information together as I can before I go in there, and try to limit
downtime.
Many thanks for any help.
