Mags & Hubs

[kngtmat]

You can use this post to help others with mag wheels of all brands mags & hubs that they use.


I need help on my Lester mags I just got, they have a Bendix 76 hub that someone messed with before I got them which doesn't move at all & they had put the arm backwards?

I also want to know is there a few differences between hubs in mags than they are normally?

 

[scrumblero]

mag hubs are mostly cartridge style shells and have different flanges, but generally use the sane guts as the standard ones

oh ya.. check the assembly order... http://www.oldroads.com/arch/pic1_293.html :mrgreen:

Ok.


Do these mag's still need rim strips to keep the tube in place since the don't have sharp edges inside and how to put a tire on then since they don't have lips for them like every other rim I have known does?

No rims strips are needed. Post a pic of your internals so I can see what you have or don't have to figure out the issue. Kevin

Sorry I am late but I have been busy trying to sell most of my bikes and helping move things.

After finally getting to do something I loosened it so it moves & brakes but it needs the whole thing cleaned & fresh grease/oil in both wheels but I don't know what, I have looked around the site but like always I can't find what someone said to use before.
