Wheelsfar RD270 hub "problem"
« on: September 02, 2025, 02:01:10 PM »
Hi, this spring I ordered wheels from wheelsfar. And so far I'm happy. The only concern I have is the freehub which does not run smoothly. A friend of mine has the same issue. Does anyone have the same "issue"?

I assume it is skipping cogs? You could contact then, and they could send you replacement springs and star ratchets.
Or you can replace it with original DtSwiss ratchet set. Any mayor online store should have them. Just look that it needs to be for original star ratchet (1. gen.). Simply said, it must NOT contain in description EXP (2.gen.) or DEG (3.gen.) The 1.gen. is so or so the best one. Especially in maintanence perspective.

I'll have a look. Thank you
