How do I adjust THIS Campag hub?

namastebuzz

TRying to adjust a campag hub.

On the non drive side is a plastic cover held in place by a pinch screw & bolt. If you undo the screw you can then unscrew the cover up a threaded shaft but not all the way off. The cover also has flats on it for a spanner. There's nothing else that can be unscrewed.



On the drive side is one flatted surface which appears to tighten anti-clockwise.



How do you adjust the hub - there's play in the bearings?

Sorry the pics are a bit blurry but you get the idea.

Release the small Allen screw / locking collar on NDS - put a 5mm Allen key into the drive side end of the wheel spindle - use a suitable cone spanner on the locking collar flats to adjust - retighten the small Allen screw to secure. Takes about 30 seconds - job done.

Looks very similar to my 2009 wheels and on those you slacken the "pinch screw" and turn the "cover" bit with flats on it, to get the corect adjustment *, then tighten, more of a nip- up, the "pinch screw".

Or have you tried that?

* rim play that just goes when the Quick Release is fully closed. Try all around the wheel.

THat all makes sense and I've printed off the tech doc as well so I'll get on it this afternoon.

Hey Namastebuzz
I thought you were a swiss accredited DT Swiss wheel builder & a Level 2 mechanic with over 30years experience...........!!!!!
So how come you're on here asking basic questions? :oops:
For someone who runs a business offering servicing you dont seem to know much

It's one thing to ask for help/advise to sort out your own kit but to get help then get paid for it......... not my idea of sporting :x

Suggest the other member ignore his pleas for help as the only one benefiting is his bank balance

Don't be so mean spirited. People like to share their knowledge in this way, and I for one won't hesitate to give advice to anyone I think may benefit from it. On this occasion I'm no use at all as I only speak Shimano, but my time will come. In the meantime, reflect on the fact that every time you post the link to his site you're giving him free advertising!

You can only learn by asking. Or being taught by a Cytech accredited mecahnic?

Nice first post Cytech.

Personally I'd rather one or two of the bike shops I've used had asked on here before whatever horror story of a repair they ended up doing.

Cytech spammed 2 other posts, copy and pastes. I reported one, this one is still here. I know a hell of a lot about bikes yet I still ask questions - rather someone ask than make a balls up.

Cytech needs to take a running jump.
