    Slightly easier this one – I just don’t know how it works.

    I’ve brought a very nice talent compensator for the Alps and it has Boxxer forks.

    The axle is really weird. You slot it through and then there’s an allen key on the end that seems to “pop in and out”. If you turn it it makes a clicking noise and seems to tighten.

    The wheel doesn’t feel loose once its tightened but I’ve no idea if I’m tightening it right (and I don’t fancy it coming undone).

    Does this make sense to anyone – I’ve not seen a set up like this before.

    This any use? My mate’s boxxer maxle is completely shagged so I think probably the method used for his won’t be of any use (it’s involved hitting it with a shovel)
