Cup and Cone Hub

I noticed my rear wheel (DDM Disc Specific on Formula Alloy Hubs? Standard on my carrera kraken) wasn't running straight when I was cleaning my bike but I'm not sure if it needs trued or is something to do with the bearings. It just wobbles from side to side. I've had the bike since the start of the summer and I do light XC if thats any help. If anyone could shed any light, it would be much appreciated and yes the QR is fastened properly!

Sounds like the cones are loose, the wheel is buckled or both.
Pull the wheel left and right with your hand and if there's more movment than flex something is up with the inner of the hub, hopefully just the cones need nipping up.0 -

Yep, it does move from side to side, is it just a case of following this guide then http://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-hel ... adjustment ? Thanks0
