matt b Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 Axle seals just pop out with a flat head screwdriver, just be very gentle so that you don't damage the housing.Spline seal was fine on mine. RMS was another gentle approach, but also comes off well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbon_R Posted August 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Re-surfaced the flywheel today, took about one hour and it's purdie, look at the diamond cut surface FYI; the pins are 6mm and it uses 3.This weekend I'll start with the pedal install/shifter/cables install.Raf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
