I just got some Hope XC Disk hubs. They're all cartridge-bearing, but I can't figure out how I'd get
the hub apart when and if I need to replace the cartridges.
The exploded diagram on Hope's website shows spacers on the outside. They don't seem to be threaded,
so they must just pull off, but how would you pull them off?

If the new Hope stuff is like my older stuff...then you just pull hard to get the end-spacers off.
The ones I have here have an internal O-ring that "grips" the axle, can be a tight fit. I wrap the
aluminum with a rag and them use pliers to pull.
Some really early Hope stuff may have a small Allen set screw that holds these on the axle, so look
closely for that first.
