Shez.sheridan Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Okay, I was reading mbuk in the airport yesterday & I saw that shimano have a new skewer with some kind of lattice style spring, instead of a conventional coil; stupidly I didn't buy the magazine..can someone just have a quick trawl through & tell me what they call it as I want to see how they are manufactured...cheers guys n' gals..Derv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsinchris Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 june or july? and can you remember where abouts in magazine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shez.sheridan Posted June 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Not too sure, the one with Aston in Paris on a streetride..I think it may either be in the new kit section, or on the shimano recal request? Theres a picture of a hub & theres a lattice style spring instead of a coil..underneath there's a comment on it if I'm not mistaken..cheers...Derv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 wasnt that a spring to preload the bearing in the new easton wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsinchris Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 new easton wheels there the new wheels but no skewer, cant see anything else in there it could be though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shez.sheridan Posted June 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 It could be the easton wheels perhaps as I did'nt really pay as much attention as I should of at the time, I'll check them out....cheers guysDerv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that NBR dude Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Had a quick browse through MBUK while I was in hellfrauds, and the only thing I saw about Shimano skewers was the recall, but didnt see anything about a lattice spring.
