Title: Front axle reinstall hang up. All tips welcome! Post by heroicseven on 10/14/12 at 22:49:06 Recently took the front wheel off to do a little polishin', and now cant seem to get the threaded end of the axle to seat and tighten in the fork. things to consider: I have the bike on some 4x4s as suggested by another thread. The front fender is still on the forks I have the spacers in correctly. I think... (oreiented so the flange side is to the fork) Anything Im missin here? :-? |

All tips welcome Post by justin_o_guy2 on 10/15/12 at 04:50:37 If youre still having problems, pull the axle out of the wheel & put it in the forks & Prove to yourself you Can put the axle in. If that works okay, then look for what is restricting your wheel's movement, why cant you get it lined up? Thats how I solve irritating hassles like that, |
