No big updates for this project but I noticed there was some drag in the hub.
Seeing as how I've overhauled a 3-speed before I decided to take it apart, relube and put everything back together again.

We're not at that stage yet though.

The hub has a lock ring that requires a special tool. I tried using regular tools and a hammer but the aluminum didn't like it all that much so I ordered the tool.
When I open things up I might as well replace some of the more wear-prone parts and give it a good overhaul.

Got the parts today and will probably open everything up somewhere next week.
