Thoughts on this idea please......
My bike has a lot of mileage, and the cush drive has over all that time copped a fair bit of abuse.
I have changed the rubbers a couple of times, and each time they wear out quicker.
When you look at the faces of the webs on the carrier and the wheel, you can see the pitting that has
been created by the combo of grime and the rubbers wearing at the faces. So, after 6 months the carrier just drops out of
the wheel, and obviously drive train lash increases, chain and sprocket life decreases as well.
My idea is this....to abrade the surfaces so that JB Weld can be smeared onto them, then smoothed and polished.
This is to provide a fresh surface without pitting and theoretically tightening up the connection by 10% give or take....
Or, is there a better product out there for that job ?
