Anyone have any experience with mangling the drive ring and freehub body on a rear Bulb? After about 6years use (which I am quite happy about), my freehub body is gouged from the drive ring, and a few of the teeth on the drive ring (in the hub shell if this is not clear) are broken off/mangled. Is it possible to replace the drive ring? It looks like it might be, but it would certainly be difficult to remove.

edit -- looking at the diagram it looks like it might be. They sent me a new hub so I don't really know.

As I suspected, the drive ring is seperate, being steel, while the hub body is aluminum. But it must be press fit/bonded like crazy. I will contact them and see what they say. Thanks for the help man.

most drive rings are threaded, you'll need a special tool to remove 'er
