    Noticed new campagnolo scirocco
    freehub is loose after two spins.
    There is about 5mm of play on it
    Looks like the lock nut with the small grub screw has shifted
    Would moving this back 5mm sort it or is it an internal problem

    Thanks
    Dono

    The nut you mention with thevgrubscew is the bearing pre tension..
    Screw it in ( the nut) till the wheel spins freely with not lateral play
    Then tighten grubscrew
    Jub done

    Most new campy wheels would need a tightening of the axle bearings as they they bed in over first couple of spins
