The grease in your hub will provide optimum performance between 30°-110°F. The bearings

and RingDrive engagement mechanism come lubricated with a specially formulated low shear

grease. To maintain maximum performance in extreme temperatures see appropriate section

under "Lubrication", pg. 5.

Break-In

Once your new hub is placed in service, some settling may occur. Check adjustment by clamping

wheel into frame with a quick-release skewer or with Chris King FunBolts. Ride for 5-10 minutes, check

for play or binding, and readjust if necessary. Recheck after the first 1-5 hours of riding. Check cog

lock ring on rear hubs after the first 20 hours of use, and tighten if necessary. Continue monitoring

for the first 60 hours of use.

During the first 60 hours of use, above average amounts of drag may be noticed. This is

normal as the seals break in, and will soon diminish. If this causes chain sag in the rear while

back-pedaling, increase the B-tension (cage tension) on the rear derailleur.

The bearing grease is intentionally overpacked and excess grease may seep at the bearing

seals during the break-in period.

Maintenance

See R45 Hub Information section on pages 14 and 15 for R45-specific information.

Maintenance schedule

Chris King Classic Hubs are designed to provide long life and high performance. Beyond an

occasional adjustment, the only maintenance necessary is cleaning, lubricating the RingDrive

(see "The RingDrive", pg. 11), and re-lubricating the bearings (see "Service of the bearings", pg.

11). Riding conditions will determine how often to maintain your hubs. As a beginning guideline,

your hubs should be maintained every 6-12 months in normal and dry conditions and every 3

months in wet or muddy conditions.

The bearings in your new Chris King hubs are of the highest quality. However, all bearings

will settle and eventually wear with use. Since looseness or "play" in the bearing assembly

can develop as a result of wear, Chris King hubs have been designed with an adjustable

bearing preload mechanism and any normal play can be eliminated (see the appropriate

"Adjustment" section, pgs. 6 to 10).

Notes on RingDrive

Normal preventative maintenance of the RingDrive is simple and can be performed using

basic tools (see "The RingDrive", pg. 9). In many cases, a minor cleaning and reapplication

of lubricant is all that may be necessary. Judging when to perform this basic maintenance

is determined by riding style and conditions. As a beginning guideline, your hubs should

be maintained every 6-12 months in normal and dry conditions and every 3 months in

wet or muddy conditions.

If foreign debris is detectable in the grease and/or the grease looks hard or dry, a complete

servicing (removal and cleaning) of the RingDrive should be performed. Complete service

includes the removal of the RingDrive engagement mechanism and requires the use of

our Hub Service Tool. See any authorized Chris King dealer for complete service or you

may purchase a Hub Service Tool Kit from your dealer or directly from Chris King Precision

Components. Chris King Precision Components provides overhaul services at reason-

able rates. Contact the Customer Service hotline at 800-523-6008 for details.
