harmertrials Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 might sound ridiculous but: cracked chainstay? saw this once with the same symptoms Turns out it does have a cracked chainstay... a drilled 2p either side of the axle as washers seems to have sorted it though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmertrials Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 just didnt know he meant the size of the drill.... No no, a drilled out coin either side acting as washers/spacers on the axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted December 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Yeah it's sorted now, thanks for the replies. Turned out that the bolts were bottoming out in the hub, didn't have any spacers so like Jack said, we drilled some and used them. Cheapest bodge ever, cost 6p. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
