let the grease spread.
they do recommend oil not grease."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Grease will dampen the noise btw, something thinner will not.0

check the metal springs on the freehub body they wear down against the paws noticed same thing on my hope hub, it was also full of crap so just take the paws out get new springs put it all back together grease it all back up and you will have a very clickety click rear hub againanthem x with many upgrades0

Thanks for your replys mixed on wether you like the clickety click or not.New springs can you buy these on their own or do you have to change the pawels too.Without the noise is any damage occuring ? Thanks againPACE RC325.5 1x9

yeah can buy them separatly just a few quid, they just help the pawl engage better, they do wear out quick if you do a lot of miles, im changing mine every 6 monthsanthem x with many upgrades0

Thanks for your help ive changed the springs and pawls cleared out the old grease and added a light oil,that click has never been louder dog walkers can hear me well in advance . Just a tad on the exspensive side for a few miniscure pieces of metal o well worth it sounds quality.PACE RC325.5 1x9
