I've had a double check because I've not ridden for a few days. There is play everywhere, laterally, front and back. I don't know whether it's a case of just tightening up or replacement BB. If it is a case of replacing the BB does any one know what size etc I'd need?

It's a Fuji Classic Track 2010, for the most part it's been kept relatively close to stock componentry.

It's not happening to that degree, not half a revolution more like the tiniest bit, but it's irritating

There's no lateral play in the bottom bracket, just forwards and back. There's a slight delay before all the drive chain engages. It's more noticeable when back pedaling, as you feel the gap where there's no resistance and then it grabs again.

I'll double check the tension.

Could possibly be the hub. The bikes been in storage for over a year till I'd bought it, so it's been neglected somewhat.

I got the tension as tight as I possibly could without being too tight.

When I'm riding or just sat on the bike there's some slight play somewhere and I'm confused as to how to stop it. When I pedal forwards there's a tiny moment just before the the chain engages and pulls the bike forward where nothing happens, the cranks just move with no resistance. It's only brief, but now I've noticed it happening it's hard to ignore.

I know the explanation isn't brilliant, but that's the only way I can describe what's happening.

Anyone any ideas?

I didn't think about the seat tube. It might not be worth all this mutilation of the frame for the sake of an extra 2mm of tyre. Hmm...

Hi, I was just wondering whether or not it is possible to saw out the rear brake mount in order to install 25mm tyres instead of 23mm tyres. The fit is tight as it is as I'm using a track frame, and it doesn't take much to make the 23mm rub against the mount.

Would sawing the mount out affect structural integrity and make the rear triangle weaker?

I've managed to sort it out now. The hubs were loose, a quick tighten and everything was right as rain.

.

Has anyone got any in any colour in a UK size 12 that is willing yo post and accept PayPal?

Gutted. I would have bought those in a heartbeat but they're way too small for my clown feet :'(

Is this still for sale?

I bought second hand single speed bike recently and I'm having a bit of trouble with the rear wheel.

When I attempt to remove the rear wheel from the dropouts I can get both nuts loose, but it gets to the point where both of nuts just spin and don't loosen any further and I'm not sure what the problem is. Could anyone tell me why the nuts is hollow as well please, I've never seen something like that before.

I've included a picture below (excuse the state of it, I'm still yet to give it some TLC).

Also, when I first got it the rear wheel seemed to be rubbing on the rear brake mount and preventing me from riding it, a service at the LBS seemed to remedy this but I'm worried if I get to the point where I can get the rear wheel removed that the problem will reoccur.

Thank you guys in advance. :)

It won't let me upload a picture unfortunately :(
