QUOTE(mrjgx @ Dec 12 2012, 07:38 PM) Changed the cassette already. The chain links not been reduced..so I can swap back to my 32T with no issue on the chain. maybe they cleaned the pawls, removed old grease n gunk. and they put in new smoother grease. that's why u can hear louder pawl engaging. mine was the same tooThe wheel doesn't need truing at all..landmine proof, but why the heck after servicing the rear hub now damn loud? What they did to my hub? |
