So my new 15 mm bt wheel build up arrived today from CRC , happy days indeed but I'm new to this 15 mm malarky so there are a couple of questions I have for the STW knowledge base!

I just tried it with my new forks fit wise and all good so far. Before I use it in anger should I grease the axle?

Also, the end of the axle it looks kind of exposed like a dust cap is missing - should I have one?

Cheers,

Si

Definitely grease the axle every so often. If you don't you will notice it get harder to take out each time as water and crap etc gets in.
