For those not familiar with Chris King hubs, that "service" refers to relubricating the RingDrive freewheeling mechanism every 6 to 12 months. This isn't at all hard and all one needs are normal hand tools and a bottle of Chris King RingDrive lubricant. OK, so you do need that proprietary Chris King hub preload adjustment tool that's about $25, but this is a 5-minute job and is distinctively not like servicing a classic loose-ball hub. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
