You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
I know i've seen a link posted somewhere to the manual for changing bearings / freehub on a switch rear hub, but can't find it after at least 2 attempts at searching. I think it was on the novatech site but cant find it on there either.
Anyone know it? 😕
I can email them to you if you want....
That'd be grand. Email now in profile.
Cheers. 😀
I think they are Novatec B881SB / D882SB hubs. I haven't got them myself but may be soon so can't confirm the links below are the right ones but have a look.

Also it looks like one of the bearing is behind the freehub engagement ring so you'll also need a freehub ring nut removal tool, [i]if[/i] it's the same as the DT ones then it'll be £50!!
It looks like the Novatec freehub ratchet ring tools are 24 tooth and the DT Swiss ones are 26 tooth so you'll need to make your own, take it to a LBS or sent it back to Superstar!

The drive side bearing isn't "behind" the ratchet ring, it slides right through it. No need to remove the ratchet ring at all.
