isitafox Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 What hub and frame is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Some people found that their bolts tighten up against the axle rather than the frame, which makes it a bit slippy. Adding washers could cure that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding washers could cure that. Yeah I had this problem when moving to my current frame. Some washers did the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koxx lad Posted January 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 i have and echo lite frame on an echo hub so i thought it should be ok and it only moves when i do serious gaps as im right footed so it pulls all my chan enlinement out too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HippY Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 At the moment i have a very worn frame and i got the same fault. my resulutions: - clean, remove grease ( once i got a bolt stuck in the axle. so i used grease. but appereantly too muc) - grindid the inner and outer part a littlebit with sandpaper ( just to make it little bit rougher, hopefully it helped too) - bringing a allen key with me for align it frequently+ snail cams with the grindig part im not sure if its a professional way to do it .... probably not, but it seems to work, altough its move a little bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
