Odyssey Clutch

<< < (2/2)

G:
The slack shouldn't change during use, but it can take a few minutes riding and repeated engagements and full disengagements to knock the parts back to the max slack position after you have made any adjustments. The adjuster needs the backing off of the clutch to push them back to the non-drive side.

The first batch of hubs seem to have been a bit low on grease so if you are getting noises then adding more grease through the adjustment hole (and working it in) may well fix any annoying rattles.

Thanks for that G, turns out the expanding spacer had cracked right on the threads for the grub screw which was allowing to back out so easily.

Can replacements be purchased?

Thanks!

Drop me your shipping address by email and I'll sort it. That's not a failure I ever expected to hear of, so it would be good to see it.
