This is an excellent video for cleaning & lubricating the freehub pawls in the DT Swiss 1800. I did have a problem with the pressed-in (top hat) cap. I intially tried using the towel and pliers method shown in the video but didn't have much luck - the cap would not budge and I started scratching up the finish even with the towel to protect it. What ended up working for me was using a soft leather pair of work gloves to grip the grooved freehub body and firmly pull it off the axle. I also applied some side to side rocking motion while pulling the assembly by hand. With a little effort this, released both the freehub body and cap from the hub.
I cant tell you the name because i get this from my friend. He is doing something with big machines. Maybe the name is Äronix. I put too much in the hub. I want it silent. Normaly you need wery smaal amaunt of it. www.amazon.de/dp/B084NT29HK/ref=sspa_dk_detail_5?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B084NT29HK&pd_rd_w=kFkJn&content-id=amzn1.sym.f63cb723-41a5-4d60-97aa-9969c9663073&pf_rd_p=f63cb723-41a5-4d60-97aa-9969c9663073&pf_rd_r=DPRP82VB6AV1KK9813M9&pd_rd_wg=Kwin6&pd_rd_r=05eefb43-2c75-47d5-854f-bc55a7650aef&s=automotive&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9kZXRhaWw
Yes,it will. If you put just a little bit, than it will be not silenced. I put special grease that disapears under pressure and after 500km it sound as original.
Hello, Can you give the dimensions of the bearings in the hub? How many bearings are in the back? Is it the same size as the 23 model? I'm going to buy a ceramic bearing and have it installed..
Hello, 2 bearings on axle, 2 bearings in rotor/rear, only 2 in front.The same for any 370 hub -15x28x7mm, B.BEARING 6902 ESB/ESNB L, HSBXXX00N2336S. www.dtswiss.com/de/support/produkt-support?matnr=W0P1800NIDUSA10610 pictures.dtswiss.com/uploads/WXD10000000897S/MAN_WXD10000000896S_WEB_EN_001.pdf www.dtswiss.com/de/support/produkt-support?matnr=W0P1800AIDXSA10609
@@pukysonschannel777 Sure thing. I see it a lot and it causes too much harm. Very thin layer and around the o-ring of the axle adapter and it will be plenty.
I cant tell why others have problems or harm. My ratchet, hub, cap, wheel is doing well. No problems here. I know that the wrong lube causes pressure and can destroy the hub. The grease that i use disapears under pressure and only thin layer hold the place. The lube is for machines with wery high rotations. It stay only an thin layer and cause no presure and cant harm the hub.

I'm glad you liked the video and that you managed to solve it in your own way.
i used towel and teeths 🤣
Thanks for the great video. I run same wheels on my Cervello R3 and love them. Due a service. What is the name and type of grease you used?

Putting grease will completely silence the freehub isn't it?
Yes,it will. If you put just a little bit, than it will be not silenced. I put special grease that disapears under pressure and after 500km it sound as original.
What grease did u use?
Regular grease for high presure bearings. This had green colour, but u can take any.
Quiero comprarme estas ruedas , son duraderas?
Me las recomiendas .
Gracias
Si no pesas demasiado, absolutamente recomendable. La calidad es genial.
thanks for this video! how easy is it to remove the actual bearings if i want to service those?
With the right tools, Easy. The bearings hold up 3000 -5000 km and even more.

@@pukysonschannel777 Thank you so much.
@@pukysonschannel777 Hi. What's the bearing number in Rotor/Rear (Freehub Body). I could not find the bearing number on any document. Thanks
Thanks for the video. I'm considering buying this set of wheels. What do you think about them?
The wheels are perfect. After one year i tightened up the spokes and they run perfect.
My freehub refuses to come out…
Maybe you have some other freehub model. On DT Swiss it should be easy.
Never put that much grease under the end cap. It will attract too much dirt.
Thansk for the info.
