Speedhub purchased new and previous service done by LBS. But looking at what's involved looks fairly straightforward (I'm no bike mechanic but moderately capable with such stuff) so hoping to DIY it.
Looks like a "service" is just an oil change". Plenty of online guidance but I've 3 questions:
1. The quantity of new oil to put in. Manual shop gave me when purchased says 12.5 ml BUT online (SJS publishing Rohloff's instruction sheet) says 25 ml oil back in. What quantity do people use. Or put back what I take out (allowing for cleaning fluid, etc.) to min 12.5 ml. 1st time I'm doing it so don't know?
2. From what I can see the drain screw appears not to "stop" or tighten and mustn't be screwed in too far. It there no "tighten" and just screw it in until flush rather than until ant "stop"?
3. Anything else I should be aware of or take special care of?
Many thanks
