When I was servicing my bike tonight,I could not get both nuts loose, and after messing about with 2 allen keys, finally got the wheel off. After a little investigation. I noticed the above.
Not sure how it happened. Besides removing the wheel, I have never messed with the hub at all. I have noticed that the wheel has been difficult to remove and tighten before, with the axle turning in place rather than the nuts tightening.
Anybody seen this before? Are replacement axles available?
The wheel still runs like butter.
