Back to the Star Ratchet on the DT 240. Mine needed regular lubing with the recommended lube to keep it quiet under hard efforts. Pretty cool mechanism but I wasn't too sad when the flanges on my front hub broke while the bike was hanging peacefully. Later, the rear hub flange broke while the wheel was hanging. (slotted spoke holes for bladed spokes). In the beginning, I had no idea where the little annoyance was coming from.
