Cone/lock nuts that hold the freehub to the axle will have backed out from underneath the freehub itself. Don't know that hub exactly but usually have to take cass off, then adjust and lock off the nut under there. Sometimes there is a nut and a lock nut (cone hub style), and other times its one nut on the end of an axle tha tyou have to put a big allen key in from the other end. Just had a new style fulcrum wheel where there is no way of holding the axle as you loosen/tigthen the freehub retaining nut, had to use a suspension fork/ tube clamp. Normally there is an allen key inside or a cone spanner on the outside of the axle kind of an affair.

Anyone seen this before? I know there's been some Bitex hub chat recently.
This Bitex hub has only done 700-1000 km. Entire freehub assembly moving inboard/outboard by 2mm. What is causing this, and what's the solution?
The axle bearings have also developed slight play, i.e. I can wobble the rim sideways for a little clink/clunk.
