Yeah it was something like that, but only half a circle. May try those.
Tried the bb, but didn’t work well.

Certainly better than ball bearings and good wishes.
So many low end bikes like dawes or anything from argos, fork dropouts are usually so far out of line that the axle nuts and those folded steel safety tabs are the only thing holding the wheel in vaguely the right location.

I have this weird feeling like someone made a half-moon shaped insert to go in a fork dropout to slightly increase tyre clearance. Sound familiar to anyone?
