Swiss side Hadron Wheelset

Has anyone got any experience with servicing these?

Trying to change the ceramic bearings in the hub body as they are already worn. Only bought new in February.

The problem I'm having is the axle doesn't want to come out easily to allow the removal of the bearings and I doubt it should have to be forced.

Swiss side provide no technical info on their website and haven't replied to any of my emails.

No experience of the brand but it sounds like there's a problem as the axle should come out fairly easily with a tap from a mallet. Have you tried contacting them via facebook or twitter?
Considering the period of time unless you've done shed loads of miles or in appalling conditions it's not very good for a wheelset north of a 1000 euros!
Not that it helps now but ceramic bearings are one big con, costly and offer imperceptible saving over decent steel bearings. Any ABEC5 rated bearing is more than adequate.
luck sorting them.

knock the axle out with a rubber mallet. Sometimes axles can be appear stuck but it is not a problem. Axles do not always withdraw by hand.

Yeah got onto them on twitter and said they would reply. Will try a bigger hammer today.

So finally got some sense from Swiss side.

'The axle is captive by the bearings. Normally it is not a component which ever needs to be removed. However, to remove it, it needs to be pressed out with the bearings (on one side). Those bearings would need replacing. Care should be taken not to damage the aluminium axle and threads when pressing out.'

Might sound like a complete novice here but have yet to see a tool to push out an axle?

Get one of these and drill an axle sized hole in one of the clamps?

As I said knock it out with a hammer. A rubber mallet is what I use. Novatec F482 hubs use a captive axle (terrible design I think) and knocking the axle out from the NDS to the DS with a rubber mallet will never damage the axle and the DS bearing comes out with the axle. Pressing back in means the NDS bearing in the novatec hub needs an overaxle kit.

I have a handy axle sized hole in my wooden work bench on which I place the hub with the freehub already removed and simply tap. Always works it will work for you. No need for a fancy tools for this one. Your over axle it will comprise of a treaded bar and a bunch of spacers. I use an wheels manufacturing toolset which is essentially an expensive threaded bar and spacer and drifts.
