## Description

desertcart.com : Park Tool DH-1 Dummy Hub : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Effective for chain cleaning - Only takes a few seconds to install. Very well made and amazingly simple. Makes cleaning your chain much easier, and much more effective. Once you get the rear tire out of the way, it's so much easier getting all of the components clean, particularly your brakes. Cleaning the chain is a snap. My favorite aspect is being able to lube the chain without having the extra lube all over your rear cassette. Much easier keeping your rear cassette consistently clean this way. This product is well worth the investment.
Review: but since it was pretty inexpensive, I decided to order one and see - I had never heard of a dummy hub until I stumbled across this Park Tool product while searching for something else. I wasn’t totally sure if it would earn a spot in my shop, but since it was pretty inexpensive, I decided to order one and see. This simple little tool has greatly improved my bike maintenance and cleaning. I’m somewhat obsessive about keeping my drivetrain clean, but before the dummy hub, I would mostly leave my rear wheel in place and use a variety of methods to clean the chain, cassette, jockey wheels and chainrings. I did a decent job, but nothing compared to removing the wheel and having full access to all components. I now find grime in places I hadn’t seen before. I also find that while having the rear wheel removed, I take off the chain more frequently and do a deep cleaning there. It’s just simple to take the chain on and off with the dummy hub. I’m going to travel with my bike in a few weeks and plan to remove the wheels so I can transport the bike inside an SUV (for security). The dummy hub will be perfect for that and I’ll use a chain cover to protect the car’s interior. So, yes this simple little tool earned a spot in my shop. And even more, I’d replace it today if it went missing.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you put this on?  Is it tricky or difficult for a non-technical person?**
A: It's easier, actually, than putting on your rear wheel.  Just get the chain in the roller wheel of the device, slide it into the rear chain stay dropout, then lock the quick release lever.  If you want more or less tension in the chain you can simply adjust your rear derailleur to lower or higher gear and rotate the crank.

**Q: i have one.  no need if you have a thru axle.  simply use an old adhesive bandage spool and your thru axle.  I use mine mostly for transport**
A: That would definitely work too!

**Q: Is there a bearing in the contraption, or does the plastic wheel just spin on the axle?**
A: No bearing; although, otherwise well made. The plastic wheel spins on a metal axle. The chain rides on the plastic wheel which is free to move sideways when shifting gears. This makes it easier to clean the derailleur linkages as well as the chain.

**Q: Will it work on my 6KU track bike?**
A: Probably. It's designed to work with quick release axles. Your bike as bolt on axles. It will not work with thru axles. It is adjustable for the thickness of the drop out. If you still have the factory bolt on axles , you'd have to undo the bolts with a wrench, remove the rear wheel and then use this hub. To put the wheel back on, you'd do the reverse. If you're not familiar with the terms "quick release axle", "bolt on axle", "bicycle drop out" a quick search of Youtube should help. You could also show take your bike to a local bike shop, show them a pic of this item and ask them if it would work.
