wip-bikes Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 The bolt might be tightening onto the axel instead of the frame. Make sure the axel isn't sticking out past the frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Pics of the setup? Are you running the hub slammed into the dropouts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I can Grab pic, what you mean slammed? its got vertical dropouts And do you run the axle completely seated to the end/top of the slot? Some people make up for dodgy dish by clamping the axle somewhere in the middle of the dropout... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzatrip Posted February 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Ahhh, then its slammed right in the dropout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Is there room to run an shake-proof washer between the hub and the frame? Might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
