What lube, grease or oil, do you use on the pawls? Mine started making the pinging noise, so it's time to rebuild it. Luckily, it only takes half an hour.
this only ever happened to me when i used way too much of it. YMMV.The thin oil they want you to use always just seemed to leak out on mine
weird, never had that problem on mine. might be a regional climate thing? good to know slick honey works in a pinch if i ever run out of the hadley lube.Mine just kept going dry regardless of how much or little I'd put in there. Anyway.....the honey did it. I'd just pop 'em open once or twice a year and clean them.
that's for the whiskeyI'd just run a continuous drip, from my camelback. That's what you're supposed to do right?
yea, whatever you use for lube, you just need a coating on the pawls / and interface.Slick honey here as well. Less is more.
i went a similar route and used the teflon oil they sent me and a bit of slick honey and mixed those together. been good so farjust an FYI - hadley uses a special 00 blend made by super lube. they used to give out free 2 oz bottles but went to a smaller portion a few years ago. just check their website for all the info.
or if you want the same stuff grab some super lube grease and a bottle of synthetic oil and mix until your heart's content.
i went this route since the super lube grease and oil are awesome for all the other parts of your bicycle and other lube worthy possessions.
I am not lubing that with that!i went this route since the super lube grease and oil are awesome for all the other parts of your bicycle and other lube worthy possessions.

Thanks! I found one on ebay, cheaper and not-Amazon."Superlube 00 Grease" is what I used after research. This is the smallest container I have seen for it:

It has a very low viscosity but I haven't had issues with it leaking out.
Ps, did anyone here know that CST owns Maxxis?
lol wut?Just like Sony or Panasonic were made to sound more western and appealing than Fujitsu or Hitachi.
Panasonic was originally called Matsushita Corporation. Back in the 70s they created the Panasonic brand to avoid the japanese aversion in the western countries.lol wut?
you got that a bit wrong.Panasonic was originally called Matsushita Corporation. Back in the 70s they created the Panasonic brand to avoid the japanese aversion in the western countries.
I stand corrected. That's what happens when you build an argument on dubious facts and memories instead of researchin properly. Thanks for steering me (and the thread) back on track! /offtopicyou got that a bit wrong.
Matsushita was always the parent corporation name until recently and was really never used as a brand name outside of japan. they used "National" for a long period of time but have always been called "Panasonic" (with the brand officially being recognized in the 50's.) they couldnt use the name National in the states when they entered our market because of trademark infringement.
they didnt make "Panasonic" up just for the american market
