Removing blown bearing race in odyssey driver

(1/3) > >>

dude...:
Specifically the newer type, with a roller bearing in the middle and a normal sealed bearing on the outside.

because of the roller bearing, i cant get the race out with the usual angled bit of metal/screwdriver + hammer to the back technique which usually does the trick for drivers with multiple sealed bearings in them.

thoughts? suggestions?

JFax:
I did something similar on my Ratchet and my KHE coaster.
On the KHE I just had to suffer through it with a screw driver. Took freaking ages but I finally got it out.

On the Ratchet I had to find a spacer that fit perfectly on the other side of the driver and hammer on that spacer to get the blown race out.

Not sure if it helped, but thats what I did. Its annoying as hell...

dude...:
yeah ive got a dremel copy tool i was gonna try to cut it out with but its pretty shit, and bearing races are usually super heat treated and tough to minimise wear right?

i dont have a vice to clamp the driver in so its gonna be a pain in the arse. was hoping there was some sort of magic technique i didnt know about or hadnt thought of which would work

G:
This thread has me all kinds of confused.

What driver is this? There is ONLY a needle roller in the drivers of all our aftermarket hubs, this problem simply shouldn't exist?!?!

Pictures?

Maybe he's referring to a V2 driver

I recall someone doing this with a bar end
