Removing blown bearing race in odyssey driver

<< < (2/3) > >>

dude...:
its from a mates hub, maybe a v3 odyssey? think he purchased it around 09



see how theres the race of the bearing that blew out sitting on the outside of the needle roller bearing. its a 9t driver, might have been one of the first to have the needle bearing in it if i remember correctly

RAILS!:
Flat head/chisel/extension bar and a hammer. You need to smash the bearing race over enough to be able to wedge something inbetween the driver and race properly, and then it's just a case of hitting it to fuck.

Try soaking it in some automotive sprays to help free it off. There is no "easy way" haha.

I'm not familiar with that driver, its probably a stock JoyTech one, definitely not my work, sorry. Realistically though, probably better just to buy a new driver, saves buying the bearings and all the fannying about and after 6 years or so it is probably a good idea to replace it anyway.... or just buy a new hub entirely... I realise that this is a bit of a shit answer and it would be cool to keep stuff running as long as possible by just replacing the smallest part possible, but compared to car spares or bits for a domestic boiler or whatever, this is nothing...

Well ok, in my ratchet it was the needle bearing itself that got stuck. In the KHE it was the bearing race after the bearings themselves fell out in pieces.

dude...:
its my mates old one-hyes quit riding but i need to get it running so he can ride again. ill take it down my local and wail on it with some tools i guess
