Insta message works

We have pir sensors all over

So suck up what I’ve got and lower the pressure to make it more comfortable?

It is boost

@mowgli the fork has 3 small nicks on the right stanchion, on closer inspection not “shagged”

@Andybrad sorry you missed the year up there (2018), the description that is honest about condition. The irony to your typo of “unreadable” :-)

This has full Hope pack, helm/dB il/reverb/hope hoops and stans flow/renthal bars/xt mech/shifter/brakes, hope bb and cranks

Having shock done and rear wheel sorted on Friday

Super cleanly cut and a pick down each end, no resistance

Yes

BLOODY WELL GONE AND SORTED IT :-)
Back to bits, slowly/carefully put it together and noticed the hub seal was not seated totally square this time, judicious whack with a hammer and bobs your uncle!!

effin hell the tolerances these are made to is miniscule!!

Ive assembled the axle and tried it in the frame (see pic below) and torqued it up – all works fine.

Axle dead straight!

off to check that now

I’m flummoxed

@nixie

All bearings replaced all internals replaced, new end caps, still no joy! Without the the freehub body on it and the end caps installed the total length not 142mm with the ebd caps fully installed.
Am I right in thinking there are two axle lengths?

How long should the axle be without end caps?
Doing my head in

@wally why do you miss them? They are open

Lock ring came out fine, bearings changed, new end caps ordered a the nds is very rough when it goes in

Oooop north near Sheffield

Binds not bonds

The nds end cap bonds in the hole so have ordered a new pair
If it’s not that then the only other thing is the freehub bearings which feel ok by hand??

All bits arrived – took apart – cleaned – put together methodically – still the same.
Took the hub bearings out and replaced them – bit of a struggle using various sockets. The nds end cap is binding when inserted 😭 wtf next???

@nixie – all parts ordered thank you buddy – really appreciate it :-(

@nixie – thanks buddy. What about getting the seal in – does that need a tool?

£100 for the pair

Should there be a washer in the freehub?

@nixie can you put it into terms for a simpleton step by step
What do I need to buy/do?
Thanks

I think after watching the dt Swiss video the spacer is dodgy as it took a vice to remove it from the axle whereas on the video it slid off with ease!!

@shaggy look in the pics I think you are right

How would the spacer be mushroomed? can it be bought as a spare? how can i check it?

I’v a 2.8 rekon in a normal 650b pike with tons of room

Click the link for pics

is it the seal missing or some other issue that is causing it to bind??
