yeah, the thing is... i dont ride e-bikes :D i like to "ride manual" and challenging myself with unusual bikes and I also ride foldable bikes. i registered on this forum because there was a lot of interesting info when I was building one of my bikes, replacing the stock sturmey archer IGH with...

Czech Republic, yep. the manufacturer said that they plan on offering just the hubs in the future, but as of right now, they dont know when that will happen exactly. one of their german partners confirmed that they can order just the hubs from the manufacturer and they can essentially resell...

Brutal that I cannot buy this hub anywhere in europe and all the popular/modern IGH are essentially made in Europe.. Rohloff, 3X3, Kindernay... I can buy just the hub in USA from vpl.bike, but I contacted the german manufacturer of 3x3 NINE and they said that they cannot sell me just the hub, I...

the czech one is discontinued something completely unrelated to bikes on that site and the polish one and german ones do not ship to CZK/SVK // I guess I will order from the trail.camp website to a mailbox in germany and reship from there to slovakia, that seems to be the most cost effective...

Hello, do you also have the oil plug for sale? that is an excellent shipping cost compared to kindernay

Im based in Slovakia and Czech republic, I managed to find a reseller in UK that sells some parts, I ordered the velvet oil from them, but they dont stock the oil plug assembly. I didnt find any kindernay reseller in EU.

does anyone know what type of screw do i need to fit into the oil plug? it has to be some standardized type of thread Im sure, I just dont know how to find out which one. I wanted to order the replacement oil plug, but kindernay wants 69euro for shipping the damn thing to me + import taxes, as...

where can I buy that? looking for replacement plug and I can only see this flat interface https://kindernay.com/product/oil-plug-assembly/ had to use a screw extractor, for anyone else that may experience this in the future, yes, the piece is solid and screw extractor did its job. but i ruined...

im thinking about using screw extractor, does anyone remember if the oil plug is a solid piece of metal or if it is hollow on the inside?

Guys, Im fckd... wanted to change the oil after the ride and the screw didnt come lose, its stuck there and was stripped when I tried to usncrew it, what now? yes, my lock ring and sprocket are still attached, as I am using 14T sprocket, which doesnt interfere with the screw. i screwed the screw...

I am also just performing my first oil change after 500km and there is not a single drop of oil coming out? Am I just supposed to fill the hub with 20ml of il (VII) take a single ride, drain it and fill it again with 20ml? I hope I didnt ruin my hub riding it "dry", it certainly didnt feel like...

I see no puddle forming on either of my gear hub sides, I see no leak on the shifter side. the liquid on the photos is quite thick, it is still there since the first time I noticed it and in the same format, looks like a teardrop, the viscosity seems to be higher than "normal oil" like the one...

Might this be my velvet oil leaking from the hub? I have been riding it for a week now. what is the correct procedure now? How do I know how much oil is in there? How do I know when to replace? the leak is also on the non-drive side.

thanks, that is exactly why im asking beforehand. i would rather ask ten stupid questions than void the warranty or damage such an expensive part in any way once I try to ride it as is. after mounting it on a bike, the torque arm moves concurently with the shifter, with the same cadence. on some...

is this a normal behaviour when moving the gearhub backwards? sometimes it feels like the whole hub moves backwards and sometimes it is just the sprocket/cog part, the shifter moves freely and the whole hub moves freely both ways, no resistance...

where do you shop for pare kindernay parts or new oil in europe? shipping costs from kindernay from norway is 70euro for everything, even if I order a single cog, that is just stupid.

does anyone have a 3D model of kindernay torque arm? the one with the star shaped pattern, I need to adjust the length of the arm slightly.

I dare say that this will be the smallest wheel that will be fitted with this hub. I hope everything will work as it should. First time I laced up a wheel myself, I chose 36H because I thought by simple logic that while riding like this there will be less strain on the spokes touching the...

I bought my Kindernay VII directly form the manufacturer on black friday, I think it was 20 or 30% off not sure. which essentially covered my import duties and taxes, what I saved on the purchase, as Norway it outside EU.

per recommendations, do you also use locktide or linseed oil on the spokes? does anyone? something like this cant be done in any shop near me, I guess I will have to order a stand and do the truing process myself.
