Joe_Elding Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 I'm not sure if this is the right thing, but on the drive side of the hub there i a circulare piece with two sides cut into it to be gripped wiht a spaner, vice ect. hold the cog still and tighten this, worked with mine :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nb88 Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Profile rear hubs dont have cones, you just press the driver onto the hub body. What joe said above will work if its your cog thats loose, it tightens the driver lockring. 36mm spanner size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burton Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 On the standard Profile hubs, their are cones, and you can tighted them with 2 adjustable spanners. The Mini Cassette hub, doesnt have any cones, and as said above, they tighten up when you tighten the wheel up, in the drop-outs. If, after its all done up in the drop-out, and there is still play, the you have knackered the bearings in the driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
