🚴 Unleash the Full Potential of Your Bike with Park Tool DH-1 Dummy Hub Review

There are many things like that. Everyone built a "better mousetrap". But this one, yes. This is the best mousetrap. I use mine almost exclusively to wash my bike when everything is dirty. In such a situation a word. Ideal. You can move the rear derailleur to access its innards. This will keep the chain away from you. It is very easy to install no matter what dropout you have. Highly recommended.

installation only takes a few seconds. Very well done and surprisingly easy. Makes cleaning your chain a lot easier and a lot more efficient. Once you have removed the rear wheel, you can clean all the components, especially the brakes, much easier. Cleaning the chain is easy. My favorite aspect is the ability to lube the chain across the entire rear cassette without additional lubrication. This makes it much easier to keep the rear cassette clean at all times. This product is worth the…

Like many cyclists, I have a small stash of Park Tool gear. They are all well made and extremely useful. So this one surprised me when it didn't fit my road bike. I ride Specialized which is a fairly common brand but the dummy hub axle is too big to fit in the slot. I was able to get it to work after rearranging the parts and spring, but it's definitely not as intended. A visit to the hardware store can also help. If it fits your bike, it's an extremely useful tool. If not, it's a…

I bought this Park Tool dummy a few years ago. It was only minimally used. I actually thought it could be used for repair and maintenance. Not really. After removing the rear wheel. This allowed me to clean the chain without getting the rear wheel dirty. I used it to clean the chain once. It was slightly more effective than cleaning the chain with the rear wheel engaged. When shipping a bike, it can be helpful to manage the chain. Works with thru axles up to 12mm. So if you have free time, try…

The Park Tool DH-1 Dummy Hub allows you to easily remove the rear wheel of your bike without moving the chain. I keep one in my carry case on the front of my bike and the other in my bike tool kit. The hub simply slips in the same place as your wheel hub and slips in the same place as your rear wheel axle. You will find some great videos on YouTube if you are sure you can install it at first time. I found them so useful that I gave them to my son-in-law and my middle daughter's boyfriend. Both…

This item has made cleaning my chain and components ten times easier. In the past, each part would contaminate the other when cleaning, so you keep trying to dilute the oil more through each part until you find the chain and parts clean enough. But with this dummy hub, you can clean the rear hub separately (by removing it) from other components, greatly reducing cross-contamination. You can remove the small guide wheels to clean them perfectly and attach a solution catcher to clean the chain…

I had never heard of a dummy jack until I came across this Park Tool product when I was looking for something else. I wasn't entirely sure if it would deserve a spot in my shop, but since it was pretty cheap I decided to order it and take a look. This simple little tool has greatly improved the maintenance and cleaning of my bike. I'm a bit obsessed with keeping my drivetrain clean, but prior to the dummy hub I basically left the rear wheel in place and used a variety of methods to clean the…
