    Just realised my rear disk is loose on the hub.
    It’s an Avid disk on DT Swiss hub, but not a fitting I’ve come across before – what do I need to tighten it up?

    Cheers.

    Cheers Guys, BB tool it must be.
    Much bigger than my normal lock ring tool.

    Yup. BB tool. I bought a couple for my Cannondales that have 6 bolt at the front and centrelock at the back. Brilliant bits of kit.

    The lockring maybe tight and they can rock on the splines. A little dab on the splines with threadlock helps to stop it. Use a spanner BB tool rather than a socket. Its quite a narrow nut and the sockets have a chamfer on it and will only grab half the lockring.
