Just reposting here from the mechanic + fixing thread to cover all bases.
I have a wheel built up on a Bitex RAR12 that has developed some lateral play, ~2-3 mm up near the brake bridge. I looked at all the bearings and they seem to be fine - spin smoothly - and the axle/ends caps are done up tightly. Anything else to look at? Is it likely the bearings are gone but I can only feel the wear when it's exaggerated out at the rim?
Thanks!
