A workmate bought a charge 650b+ and has done a few miles...the rear cassette needed changing, as he let the chain get too shagged. I replaced it for him, as he is still to learn basics, but as I was taking the lock ring off, it felt a bit strange....I started to take the cassette off and the freehub body fell into three pieces! It appears that the lock ring was cross threaded and then just spannered up tight ,thus fucking it completely....and it was impossible to get off. He sent it back, they returned it, incomplete, with a 'new' freehub on....except it was riddled with nibbles from a cassette. So, second hand then.
Cunts, indeed...
