ConnorPowell Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Alright,Well ive got a front viz disk hub and the whole wheel moves, the forks dont move, the disc dosnt move but the wheel goes foward an inch and back an inch when i hold the front brake and move it backwards and fowards, can someone identify what the problem may be and how i would go about fixing it.

Matthew_Gibson Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Make sure your disk bolts are tight. Also all the fixing for the disk, Its very easy to over look them. I have on many occasions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 loose rotor bolts, pads moving, loose spokes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 (edited) I highly doubt its the hub if its moving that much. Check if its the headset, rotar bolts, caliper bolts tight, QR tight, spokes loose and pads. Edited December 4, 2007 by basher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoNnY__Mc Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Sounds like the spokes are loose to me, I would go round your wheel tightening each spoke by a full turn with the spoke key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.McMillan Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 pads moving, its not play in headset either?, i thought i had play in my headset/forks/hub but my pads move slightly backwards and forwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve@banbury-trials Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 if the brake isnt set up right the disc is sometime pulled accross which lets the disc twist and bend (note my brake has never been like this ) wich in turn lets the wheel move .steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConnorPowell Posted December 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 (edited) Thanks Lads, found the source of the problem and it was my rotor bolts, they were all loose and my Qr wasnt tight enough cheers Edited December 5, 2007 by ZooPython23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
