You need to remove the cassette and fix the green seal into place, hope do have a tool to make it easier but you can do without, plastic tyre levers are good for this,no metal sharp edges. I’d pop a bit of wet chain lube in the ratchet ring to keep it sweet also I’ve used the dt grease on the pawl and spring seats to keep them moving. Still working as should? Atb John 🏴
Seems like their seal/O-ring failed to kept the crud out. I have 2500 miles in the mud and dirt on my pro 4, hardly any dirt inside it. I would be contacting HOPE for warranty replacement. I also saw one of HOPE's boxes for those rims at the local courier depot. Made In China was stamped on the side. I contacted HOPE to ask and magically it's the only email they have never replied to.
Well it could happen if you do a lot of pressure washing .. I would recommend to take off cassette and double check on green seal maybe it was off some point .. Really shocked to see so rusty inside they are on market maybe 6 months only
It has never been serviced, with no grease, no cleaning. Water got inside and corroded all parts. I service my DT Swiss freewheel every second month! It takes few minutes same some special light grease.
the way you pressed the freehub on, already attached to the cassette- you have no way to push the green seal into place. it needs to seal up against the hub body. it is a simple push into place but with the cassette attached you cant push on it.
I didn’t have a chain whip at the time, I’ll place the seal on tomorrow as I’m borrowing one off a friend. Appreciate you though, Thanks for the heads up 🙌🙌
Just needs good clean and grease the springs look better quality compared to the pro4/3/2 stronger and longer lasting i cant wait to get pro 5 one day😊
I think you need to get some grease on the free hub paws. I had a similar issue with a vel hub that has actually rusted onto the spindle. There was no grease in there at all. Also didn’t have a serviceable hub so I ended up having to by a new freehub for it.
Cheer, Just do not understand how its washed the old grease out though? Absolutely melted my head trying to figure it out. I am sure the seal has popped out and then water got inside.. Back to normal now anyway!
@@StevenHandDH in my case it wasn’t helped by being in a humid environment when it had been wet. Maybe the back of your van and the temperature of the vehicle could have done it.
I just do not understand where its gone though? I am sure the seal has moved or come off and water has gotten inside while the wheel was turning and washed it out. Absolutely baffled me

Damn dude, these free hub guts look like you send the rear wheel diving and left it for good 😲
Do what we do 😂

Aluminium rusts too, just bit lower pace than steel. Stainless steel is best at resisting outdoors.

It’s not even six months old, Shouldn’t be like this already

I would say your not wrong, Just surprised me how the actual grease had been washed out. Going to put more inside it I think
There should be grease inside

Nice job bud
Thank you
