Compatibility Note
Not compatible with Brompton dynamo hubs.
- Preparation: Ensure the hub area is clean and free of debris to facilitate a smooth installation.
- Positioning: The shorter leather hub shiner is intended for the front wheel, while the longer shiner is meant for the rear wheel. Place them accordingly around the hubs, designed to be just long enough to spin freely without interfering with the riding experience.
- Check for Movement: After positioning, check to see that the shiners can rotate around the hubs without being obstructed.
- Allow for Adjustment: Be aware that it may take some time for the leather to loosen up, allowing the shiners to spin freely around the hubs.
