1977 Huffy Sun Country
#1
My wife won a 1977 Huffy Sun Country on a local auction. This bike is equipped with a 3 speed hub. I am assuming that the bike was probably never properly maintained. I sprayed Gum-out into the hub to wash out the old oil/grease. My question is what type of oil and how much is needed. I have been thinking of using a light oil such as 3-in-1.
