Thanks a lot for great video. Could you advise what may be an issue with my Rohloff? I have a difficulty with switching to 6 and 13 gears. For me it's almost impossible to send it to official service therefore I must try to fix it by myself. Thanks in advance
Hi, sorry I'm not sure what the problem is with your hub. My understanding is that gear 6 and 13 are essentially the same gear but gear 6 uses the third planetary gear set to get the extra reduction. It sounds like there might be a problem with the pawls which engage gears 6 and 13.
Hi, I paid £400 for the hub and spent about £150 repairing it. Sending it off for repair may have made more sense. However, I learnt a lot and now I have the tools needed to replace the bearings and seals in other hubs.
@@dirtbagd89 wow! £400? You got a great deal! I was trying to fix it on my own last time coz the seals are worn out and the oil was leaking. It’s good i found a reputable certified Rohloff mechanic near our place.
Great vid & strong Carhartt wardrobe as well.
Thanks! haha, I'm glad you approve of the Carhartt gear!

This is the same Rohloff model, with the torque arm. My bike to work bike and on light trails. How much did it cost you for this?
