An oil change should be carried out annually or at least every 5000km. Through this process it can be safe to say that there will always be enough oil in the hub regardless of oil loss (due to sweat oil) and that any penetrated water will be rinsed out. For a problem-free oil change we recommend the use of the Rohloff Oil change kit.
In December 2023 Rohloff changed the volume of oil in the kit from 25ml to 12.5ml and updated the oil change instructions to reflect this reduced oil volume.
See Rohloff’s oil change instructions and news article for further info.

Simple and straight forward kit with all that is necessary to complete a speed hub service. The crew at commuter cycles were really helpful and quickly filled my order… I had it within a couple of days.

Easy to use, no mess, and a quieter gear change at the end, couldn’t be better. Easy delivery despite Covid lockdown.

Great service from commuter cycles with quick order fulfilment and great communication. The hub appreciates the new oil which was easily changed with the kit rohloff have developed.

Opening the packet, I found that I had received the oil kit, & not the oil change kit. The difference is the presence of the syringe, hose, and importantly, the threaded nozzle. Its a good job that I had one from previous oil changes, or I would have been dribbling everywhere. That being said, $40 is a bit steep for two small bottles of oil and a new grub screw, especially when the picture above shows the oil change kit. It might annoy some that are expecting the whole box and dice. Otherwise, all OK.

Product is excellent. Hub operates smoother after change. Not related to product, but found grub screw on hub very fiddly. Glad kit comes with a spare. screw.

Arrived very quickly with good delivery advice.

The kit arrived promptly and undamaged. I used it to service my Shimano Alfine 11 hub as Shimano kits seem to be non existent in Australia. Worked perfectly with no hassles.
