Look Ma, No Hands!
Hey all! Working on the rear hub for my 1901 Columbia Model 74 Chainless. I've got it down to this last main section, but I can't figure out how it comes apart! The two slotted ends of the inner sleeve are threaded onto eachother on the inside of the whole barrel, however you can not unscrew them all the way because the ball bearings will run out of clearance and bottom out on their bearing races. Does the gear come off somehow? It seems that the gear is not a separate piece from the rest of the outer shell. Is it pressed on? This whole bike has required me to make a few special tools for disassembly - but this one is stumping me!
Any help is greatly appreciated - thanks!
