front wheel

denlaw

while fixing a puncture today i noticed a small bit of "play" in the wheel when i put it back on , i thought i hadn't got it on right at first but it was still there when put back on a few times , only moving a couple of millimetres either side but i admit it does concern me ..:(

This is a simple fix and takes 10 secs.

Take of the rear wheel

Take out the quick release skewer

tighten the lock nuts on the axle ( finger tight only )

put back in quick release skewer

put back on bike

JOB DONE.

do not over tighten bolts on axle or it wont spin freely, finger tighten is plenty.
