also there's quite a bit of up and down movement on the crank, any writeups anywhere showing how to adjust or stripdown ?

thanks for the offer Paul but I think I'm sorted now robbed the twenty for all the bits and had a look at jaz's bomber and shifted the washers and spacers about until it all seemed to fit without huge gaps or having to full the frame apart It still drags the pedals round when it's freewheeling though, and thats with loosening the cones   |

I stripped the hub thats on my Hercules Balmoral roadster. I guess its not a Raleigh Action bike. Although it looks like a Raleigh badge engineered bike. I had one about 25 years ago. I had got the wheel ages ago from the dump. The gloop that was on the outside was a quarter inch thick. had to scrape that off with a knife. I pulled the hub to bits and changed a couple of springs. A couple of the pawls were really stuck on there pins. used my paint scraping knife to lever the pin out a bit. the bearing clip in the driver seems too small. very loose. So I put loose balls in gease in there. Think that should be ok. I went out testing the bike. much better gear change.  the hub date is 69. Always good for a laff. though its a 40 hole hub. so cant sell it for a million dollars, as a Chopper hub. |
