  1. My rear wheel seems to be a bit "noisy" (whirring sound) when it's in the
    stand and I spin it. I'm thinking it needs a hub overhaul (it's never been
    done). Can anyone help me with the procedure? I tried to google it, but
    with no luck.

    Thanks!

    If it's a Hugi, take off the axle ends. pull the freehub body off, tap
    the axle to the left to get that bearing out. Replace if gunky, grease
    if not. OIL the freehub mech, not grease. The 'whirring' sound may be
    the rubber seals under the axle ends. If all this makes no sense..see a
    bike shop that 'qui si parla Rolf"

    Your Vector Comps use the DT Swiss "Onyx" rear hub. Manual with
    pictures is at DT Swiss' web site:
    http://www.dtswiss.com/data/files/MAN_EN_50215101788.pdf

    The Onyx rear hub is slightly different to the well-known 240: the
    cassette rotor body isn't quite as easy to remove, but is still quite
    simple.
