Stripped hub - feck!

All of that understood and done:-(

Rode the wheel lightly for a wheel then tightened the lockring again, that's why I'm so confused it 'undid' itself down the hill...

Spotter had similar troubles. Do what he did and get a bolt on sprocket. No chance of stripping any hub

Give it the BEANS!

Classic typo. :)

Bolt on mate, mine is still going strong and so far, has been the best hub ive ever had.

Disappointed...

Ian, get Hallo HG

Or bolt on.

Freudian Thread Title Gold!

Get some loctite.

#semiserious

get a front brake and use it

Ask someone with some upper body strength to do the lock ring up

stop licking the hug CB

Sounds like you are visiting some dodgy clubs

slip

That reminds me; I forgot to mention grease or threadlock. Use some.

dibs on the strip hug.

2nd thoughts mebz not.

No spit?

bike greased it - didnt help

How are you tightening the cog? is it by poofy chain whip? I kept stripping hubs and its because the cog wasnt tight enough, even though I put the power of TEN bellies behind it, I found a good link on how to use the wheel as a lever and your chain thats already on there as a big power whip!

let me find the link because I cant be arsed to describe it

Bang! http://204.73.203.34/fisso/eng/schpignone.htm

ps ..it works better with the bike upside down

whatever, I've been using it for about 5 years now on many hubs with no problems, brakeless

those people need to stop buying shit hubs then..

These are for those with reading difficulties...

try vaille hubs
like the above but a whole lot more awesome, the cog is mounted like an MTB disc 5/6 allen keys bolt to fix it thus making even the most cack handed mechanic trying to tighten lock ring and cog redundant
no need for a lock ring
