Possible Hub Issue? (My new Halo MXR) *Issue concluded, no problems with the hub*

Just ride it and see what happens

Doesn't sound like a major issue, just wearing in. My guess is maybe grease is in there moving around or something, like when you ride it and the the grease gets more spread out inside the driver but then when you're done riding, the grease sets again. That's my guess, idk for sure.


My one Shadow Rant v2 cassette did this.. I'd ride it to school which is all uphill, and it was quiet from the time I left my house to the time I locked it to the bike rack.. I'd get out of school, it's still quiet. I'd ride it downhill without pedaling and by the time I'm at the end of the hill it's loud as fuck the rest of the day. Did this for awhile before it was a constant sound instead of changing like yours is currently doing.

Probably grease and spring contact. If you know what you're doing, open it up and see if you can take a little out or replace it so it doesn't continue. I usually do a teeny dab in my Ratchet because you don't need a lot, just a little.

As stoners and morons everywhere say, a dab'll do ya.

But realistically i had a similar issue with a Semi Sealed hub. The spring was pretty shit and the thing was too greasy inside.

I used to use a little black grease mixed with petroleum jelly, but like the tiniest amount. It is a nice loose grease combo and keeps that thing rolling smooth for forever.

sticky spring/pawl issue, just use thin grease after you clean out the cheapo stuff they put in there.

Here's some pics of the ratchet ring and driver

I have one and I have the same issues

Yeah it still does this but it's proven to be no physical issue. Not worried anymore.

Thread was dead but i was now able to conclude this. (Title will be / has been changed)
