jandamna Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Right, so on my MTB ive got a half combat rim, on the front with a random hub that came with it,basically, earlier i was cleaning the bearings and stuff, just to check out the internals, as i havent for a while, and i saw that my axel (the bit that the QR skewer goes through) and it seems to have snapped into 2 pieces, which isent the best thing, could anybody give me some advice on what i could do about it? or should i just buy a brand new hub? thanks.Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concussion Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 I'm sure you can buy spare axles from Halfords... think they come with new cones too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Take it to your local bike shop. Should be no more than £15 to do and will take 10 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
