If you're buying one of these please be sure to check for play in the main frame hinge.
Great to hear that it's still possible to at least use it for sometime, I don't know if I might like it...some people apparently did!
How would you test the main frame hinge and the Pantour hub for any noticeable displacement?
A quick Google reveals Aliexpress has 74mm OLD, 14º front hubs.
The outfit involved in importing and distributing your brand in your country has many repair/replacement/upgrade parts including a 14spoke front wheel and even the DualDrive Clickbox. Sorry, if you were fixing up any other brand folder I'd just give you the link, but with D**** that's all the information I dare tell you for fear of getting banned for life from this forum.
So If I buy a normal 74mm 14º front hub would I be able to replace the Pantour hub with it ?
Wow ... Is the information about getting banned for mentioning this particular Brand name available as a forum posting rule or something?!
