The (new) end-cap of my hub is not getting on with the (new) freehub body.
Specifically the freehub cannot rotate freely - the end-cap tries to turn with it.
This means the wheel can freewheel, but there's enormous drag and you can't back-pedal as the cassette simply can't rotate backward, therefore the chain comes off.
It's a DT Swiss 180 hub, 11 speed road freehub with 10mm QR-thru-axle end caps.
What do I do to fix this?
