Blake Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Hello I am having trouble with my rear wheel, It never keeps the chain tight and sometimes moves to the left when I tighten it, causing it to hit the frame and not be able to spin. Is there something wrong with the bearings as it's an open hub and therefore can be damaged easily. Can I fix this or can I get a new rear wheel with a better hub for around £40? P.S. The hub is a monty quanto I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How Original Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Got to say, never heard of this before. What tensioners are you using on the chain? Or is it gears? If it's a tensioner, I would suggest using a different kind... Personally, I prefer tugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted April 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 I've got an onza t-pro so no gears to keep the chain tight I normally just pull back my wheel to tighten it, as apposed to using my snail cams. . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Sayers Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 I'd say you should use the snail cams and tighten the axle bolts extra tight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted April 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 But sometimes the bearing bolts tighten with the axel bolts, is this normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
