Has the drive tab that locates into the hole on the wheels hub broken off ? |

With some careful welding (pref Tig) you can fit new tangs onto the drive but it's fiddly and time consuming. Not really an economic repair if someone else is doing for you and you've still got worn internals. |

Oil change must be less than 100 miles away now, and I can start to properly explore the effect of the T'storms. ![]() ![]() ![]() Adam wrote: With some careful welding (pref Tig) you can fit new tangs onto the drive but it's fiddly and time consuming.

Thanks though, but I am a danger with a can opener, let alone a screwdriver. ![]() ![]() |

![]() Buy a new drive ![]() Don't forget to take the pads out of the caliper before you remove it, it gives you a lot more 'wriggling room' ![]() ![]() |

S1nner, I had a drive go, it siezed solid and tried to wrap itself and the cable around the wheel! Luckily it didnt damage anything more than the cable but since then, every time I change the tyre on the front (i.e wheel out) I fill a small syringe with grease and squirt it into the cable drive aperture whilst turning the mech, this last drive has done 30000 miles and (touch wood) still works fine ![]() |
