I am hearing your storage solution is ingenuous. Even after you have removed the Bay Leaves </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20316#post-335621 Mon, 10 Aug 2020 12:11:09 +0000 MediumDave 335621@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hmm, seems the cone itself has a part number Y-3AE-98030. Hopefully I can pry the seals off and reuse them without disaster. </p> <p>Expect a post in the rubbish maintenance thread shortly... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20316#post-335620 Mon, 10 Aug 2020 12:03:33 +0000 MediumDave 335620@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@wingpig</p> <p>Many thanks for checking in your bits box but sadly I don't think those hubs have cones suitable for my hub. The FH-RM30 has M10 x 15 mm cones whereas I need M10x16mm for the missing "special" left hand cone (so close!). The FH-4600 diagram annoyingly doesn't give measurements for the cones. But they don't look like my one - the seal ring is very different. </p> <p>Bike station it is! Let's hope they have something.</p> <p>Thanks again </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20316#post-335583 Sat, 08 Aug 2020 18:50:06 +0000 wingpig 335583@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@gembo These were just tucked behind the bay tree. Nice and dry under there. Shifted them today as I took the rest of the top off the tree now that the pigeons have moved on. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20316#post-335574 Sat, 08 Aug 2020 16:43:28 +0000 gembo 335574@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@wingpig, how big is your garage? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20316#post-335572 Sat, 08 Aug 2020 16:11:42 +0000 wingpig 335572@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>FH-RM30 and FH-4600 or parts thereof any use to you or anyone else? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20316#post-335539 Thu, 06 Aug 2020 23:15:04 +0000 wingpig 335539@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'll pop out in the light of morning to see what the two rear hubs out in the shed are. Almost definitely Shimano but no idea of the model; they may have common parts. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20316#post-335503 Thu, 06 Aug 2020 11:51:43 +0000 MediumDave 335503@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Oh, and the dust seals etc are all in good shape (amazingly). It's just cones I need. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20316#post-335502 Thu, 06 Aug 2020 11:50:35 +0000 MediumDave 335502@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hi folks,</p> <p>I have a jolly fine rear wheel built on a Shimano FH-M570 hub (Deore LX circa 2002). </p> <p>On rebuilding it last weekend I found the cones are finally showing signs of wear. The races are OK though so I would prefer not to rebuild the wheel. Here's the parts list:</p> <p><a href="https://www.paul-lange.de/tradepro/shop/artikel/docs/Explosionszeichnungen/SHIMANO/FH_M570.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.paul-lange.de/tradepro/shop/artikel/docs/Explosionszeichnungen/SHIMANO/FH_M570.pdf</a></p> <p>The parts I want are #9 "Y-3AE 03000" and #11 "Y-30P 98030". Both are discontinued by Shimano. The former at least is available from SJS cycles and allegedly from various ebay sellers. The latter doesn't seem to be available anywhere</p> <p>I am trying to get in touch with Biketrax and similarly will pay a visit to the bike station to root but do the mechanical wizards here have any secret sources for ancient bits? </p> <p>Alternatively is there a way to find out which modern Shimano cones might be suitable substitutes? </p> <p>Cheers,</p> <p>-D </p>
