Rebuild Sachs 3x7 hub?
I've got an old Sachs 3x7 hub with the chain shifter. I'm running it through Bob nutz. My Velocity rims split all over the place and I need to respoke onto a new rim. I want to rebuild the hub before rebuilding a wheel but can't find a parts breakdown for that style hub. Anyone know where I can find exploded view of older style hub. I don't want to take it apart without knowing what I'm getting into first. I also need source for replacement parts, needs new adjustment chain.

Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

Bike Friday used a lot of these hubs and may be able to provide the service instructions and repair parts. SRAM bought Sachs a few years ago and may still support the products. Try contacting either of these for info.

Bike Friday has some manuals and articles on the 3x7 on their website.
