PaRtZ Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 its either bearings or incorrect washer placementhave you moved any of the washers/spacers around since last tightening? if not, check the driver: take the wheel out the frame and pull the driver out and pop it over your finger. turn the cog around and feel if theres any rough spots. If there is then you have the oh so fun task of replacing the driver bearings. If its not the driver bearings, pick up the wheel without the driver in and give it a spin. If it feels rough in your hands then its the axle bearings which arent too bad to changeenjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
