You think yours are noisy...you don't need a bell with the Hope hubs we run, as they sound like you've got a lolly-stick stuck in your spokes and people hear you well before you arrive:D...saying that tho, I can't remember my Crank Bros one on the Haibike being noisy, only when in need of a lube;)

Sorry for delay.

Reminded me of lolly stick and peg trick.

Where do I lube, as they came on the rims so I fitted tyres and off to go.

With a Magic Mary and Hans D fitted there is so much road noise that the ticking adds to a general racket as I am travelling. Not what I was used to.

At the risk of going further off topic:confused:...the pawls will need some sort or another (after being meticulously cleaned as you ride off road, I might add;)). The Mavic hubs in SWs video require 5 drops of a light mineral oil, whereas the Hopes run a specific blue grease...your hub manufacturer will have instructions/specs somewhere on the www:)

So it will be OK if I spray it with WD 40 like the rest of the bike.

Guess they are staying as they are then!
