Do we have any lefty experts around? I have a Lefty Speed from my old Rush – the bearings failed and were in bits in the boot.

I’ve bought new bearings, reassembled with the circular clip in the right place, tried to slide the whole lot up and it’s jammed about half way up. The whole assembly slides nicely but I can’t push the bearings and plates up further, or pull them back out to have another go.

any ideas?

anyone in the Peak who could look at it? I’d pay!

Mtbr forums. Mendoncyclesmith in the Cannondale section seems to be the expert.
