Swampy442 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Why cant you fit the wheel correctly, doesnt look like its sat on the hub. By my count theres 3 threads showing, I wouldnt risk it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Is the hub centric ring still on the hub and preventing the wheel from going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Yup, there is a spigot ring still on the hub by the look of it, pull it off and the wheel will go on fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Get a knife or screwdriver behind this plastic or alloy ring and lever it off. If you have none standard brakes (even UK brakes fitted to a car that had J-Spec, make SURE the space saver doesn't catch the caliper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
