Hi guys,
I'm building my hardtail and I'm having a problem when trying to get my rear wheel installed. I have all the parts, spacers bearings seals chain tensioners installed, but when you go to tighten up the rear axle, it feels like I can only tighten it so much, but the wheel still slides back and forth in the rear housing. Am I just supposed to tighten to 100000 foot pounds torque? Or am I missing parts? I've looked at parts breakdowns and it looks like I've got everything there.
I had the wheel on, and we spun it around to test the rear brakes. When we really jammed on them, it's like the wheel jumps around and moves back one the shaft. No bueno.
Any help would be awesome! Thanks
