Billiboi Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Hi i have an echo SL hub, the one with 12mm spacing one side and 10mm the other side. My problem is with the 12mm side. It is abit long and hangs out of my frame slightly like 1mm, so when i tighten my wheel it tightens to max, but isnt tightened to the frame, if u understand?Tarty's said i can cut the axle to make it slightly shorter, or spacer it out,I would rather spacer it but wouldnt know where to get a spacer with a 12mm hole as all mine are smaller or 10mm.If anyone has cut it please post to let me kno how to do it, even if its as simple as "hold and cut it"Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Any M12 washer should do the trick, however the better solution of the two is to trim the axle a tad, as an extra washer will mean you have to pull the frame apart a bit to get the hub in.
