Hi everyone,
I have an ACS-Claws single speed freewheel. It's pretty nice but it is
definitely NOT sealed. Is there any mechanical reason I should not
disassemble it and pack it with grease to lengthen its life over the
winter? I had a freehub that didn't survive last winter - road salt! I
want to avoid the same thing on this freewheel. I'm concerned that if I
take it apart, it might be hard to reassemble with the springs and pawls
involved, and that grease might inhibit the pawl movement in cold
weather (2 degrees F is my limit).
Thanks,
-Collin
