  • I have a mavic asksium rear wheel and today I noticed while cleaning it the freehub has a wobble.

    Do I need to remove the cassette to be able to tighten the freehub?

  • I have three bikes here with Mavic Ksyriums - I've just checked, and there's a smidge of wobble on each of the cassettes - but it is literally, just a smidge.

    What kind of wobble? A bit of precession is normal as the freehub axis is often not precisely concentric with the hub axis. Significant free play between the freehub rotor and the hub on Mavic FTS[-L|-X] wheels usually means the hub is fucked due to insufficient maintenance of the bushing :)
