Andeee Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) Speed race fans evo, rockman cam are about 2-3week old but only rode a few times and frame only has 1default snail cam hole You could maybe try a bolt which has a bigger head that way it offer a bigger and better grip for the cam to sit. Or you could try having your cams set up on the inside/outside depending on your set up atm. It would involve having to swap the bolt side for inside/outside set up to the cam. All chains show a sign of stretching.. I know it can be a pain setting up plus its important you make sure your wheel is straight and both cams are at similar angles.
