Rear Wheel Problems

Recommended Posts

Hey guys i have little problem with my rear wheel.... I have zoo lynx 09 trialtech rim(not important though) and this hub

The problem is that the hub touches the tension bolt or how its called.... and then there is the problem that i have to put the wheel bit more back.... nearly to the end and its very hard to keep my chain nice and tight...

I was thinking about his solution: I put the bolts from the outside of the frame....i was wondering if its possible if there could be something wrong about it etc. as i used to have stock iam kinda not used to these types of tensioners.... so what do you think about this solution? or is there something wrong with my hub?

Hope that you will be able to read that as my english is not perfect ;)

There are a few possible solutions to your problem. First would be to run the tensioners on the outside of the frame. You may need to add spacers/washers inside of the dropouts to take out the 'slack' and reduce any stress on the frame. Other alternatives would be to use screws with smaller diameter heads or otherwise have (probably slightly longer) screws coming from the outside of the frame in, so that the tensioners contact on the threaded part of the screw rather than the head. I hope that makes sense!

I hope this will make sense.... well.... wont it be a problem when the snail will be on the bolt? as the axle fits the hole in the snail perfectly..... but as the bolt is little bit smaller i wonder if it wont move in wrong directions etc. i hope you understand.

And yeah i was also thinking about bolts with smaller tops...
