Thanks for the mechanical tips, cheers dude it's always good to keep in with the maintenance procedures.

Hey I have to thank you really from the bottom of my heart. I had just too loose the nuts I mean. No other video explained this but you had one job and did it exactly right❤️

Thanks for the videos. As an ex bike mechanic it's great to see an expert at work. Keep them coming.

When you said it was “end play” I realized how immature I am. I’m 36 and was legit giggling. As an American it sounded like a British euphemism. Thank you so much for this video it’s helping me as I have this issue with my new mountain bike and I’m on sure why it happened. Going to attempt to fix it today on my own before going to a bike shop

Clear and to the point great thanks very much.

Very informative, great video 👍

Exactly what I needed, thanks

Many thanks for the vid! This was exactly the cause of my rear wheel movement too, your vid helped me along with the fix, thanks! Just a quick question though - my cassette side drop-out nut (the one that slips into the drop-out when you put rear wheel in the frame) was a reverse thread to tighten it - is that normal?

thank you for sharing your knowledge to all of us! youre really good at what you do. Just to add some question, Is this kind of issue may also be the reason why rear axle come loose after ride? i keep having it and still having loose rear axle. Thanks

Brilliantly explained. Is there anyway of tightening it up with out removing the cassette? Thanks

so those endcaps preload the bearings?

Thanks so much for your comprehensive and educational video. While cleaning my mtb (a canyon Yellowstone 29 series) I removed the rear wheel, which is held by a quick release between the dropouts (width 135 mm) from the bike frame. I was appalled to see that I could move the sprockets (the whole cassette) back anf forth laterally without much effort by roughly 1 cm. I was fearing the worst until I found your video, for which I'm very thankful! I had until now no notion of endcaps and what the are good for. I understand now that they serve as adapters thru-axle to quick release. Yet I would like to know how you tighten and untighten the endcap on the drive-side. My endcap on this side is circular on the outer part. Is there any special tool to seize and unscrew the endcap? And later tighten it back with the required torque? I also have the impression that the endcap on the rotor side , which according to me is loose, is not threaded onto the axle, but tightened by some other means (latching mechanism or friction?). My wheel is a Mavic Cross Ride Disc. I would be very grateful for some further advice!

Great video! You have a new subscriber! :)

I like the fact that your service area looks like a service area, and not the inside of an Intel clean room ;-]

cheers for the video.. i'm sorted now.. same problem as yours :)

Great information.

Thanks man!! Pulled my wheel off and tightened that bolt/nut and the play is gone!

So to tighten the end cap (in case the wheel wobbles) I do not need to disassemble the cassette and the rotor, right? And I'm a little confused about the torque of the end cap.

is there a name for when you ease off the pedals (maybe pedal backwards to get your feet right) and when you start to pedal, it clangs and then goes?

nice video

Just cleaned and replaced the springs in my pro 4 hub and it’s nice and noisy again so walkers can hear me coming 👌 Always good to keep on top of hubs cos if they go wrong on the trail it’s usually game over, e bikes are especially prone to giving them some hammer

Would this also make the cassette wobble. I have play in the wheel and the cassette. Thanks

My front wheel doesn't have any nut to adjust it, just a little allen key from the none drive side, i wanted to fit the wobbling on the wheel

Hi there I have a cube attain SL 2022 road bike. From time to time, I get a knocking coming from the rear wheel and there's play just like you described in the video How did you tighten the end cap to 8nm?

right so I've tightened the hub up pretty tight. And I've still got the sound I can also feel the play when the wheels on the bike but it's only when it wobble the wheel pretty hard when the bike is on the ground. Is that normal?

hello, can this issue also cause a loud clunk on lower gears especially under load, it feels like skipping gears

What did you use to torque the end cap to 8nm?

Hello sir i have problem that i feel more resistance while peddling and my cycle is vibrating. what could be the reason for that?

Thought my rim was bent thank you

7:17 .. that bike ain't from Scarborough.

the bike is 3 weeks old the back wheel got loose I think it's the end cap thanks!

Video starts at 5:00 thank me later.

he put the rubber washer on the cassette other way around

jeez! sort your audio level out man

I have the same problem, but mine does not tighten no matter how I turn the "end cap" . Do I have to remove the cassette? here is mine: Thanks kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nr2KqaeLu9Sohac.html

Quick question. My front wheel pulls to side when braking. I regreased the hub it has no play in it. Im thinking problem is in quick release. What you think? thanks
