Simpson Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 It could either be your not doing the quick release up tight enough or your squers (sp?) arnt good enough maybe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mc Lovin Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 i do 1 learch on it and it come's out of line I'm guessing it is your rear wheel? have you bent your frame inwards with all the tightening of the quick release? that could cause it to slip out of line, post up some pictures :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayneone Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 (edited) Ive read a thread exactly the same as this on another forum. Turns out the guy had a twisted frame, Hopefully this might not be the case for you. :P Edited October 7, 2005 by wayneone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Is your dropout worn at a dodgy angle? Take your hanger off and have a look at the shape of it, it should be a perfect semicircle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawnmowerman Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Is it worn? Tap your axle with an M6 thread and use fun bolts. Tartybikes sell them :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Control-Trials Posted October 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 kk. where can i get a tap and dye kit from ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Strip your rear hub, and double-check your axle isn't buggered internally. It could be you've broken the axle itself inside the hub, which would probably cause the problem you've said. Don't just rely on the "shake test" either, really strip it down.
