Axle help

apple eater

I discovered last night that the rear axle is slightly bent. The axle itself is a hollow threaded tube from end to end with no mouldings. It is a straight through the hub kind of axle and secured with a quick release skewer

I haven't got the hub make to hand at present.

Can someone give me an idea of the replacement, i've looked on chain reaction but can't see what i need.

Without knowing what the hub is, no, we can't.
Your best bet might be to email some daytime TV psychic.

Standard threaded axle, absolutely!!

Called the bike shop and lo and behold he had them in stock, cheap and cheerful. I didn't even need top contact the tv psychics either :roll:

If you'd have actually given the full model ect I bet you could have got a whole hub with spare poss a free hub for less than you've paid for the axel.

An axle at £6.99 or a whole hub for cheaper. i think people need to read a post more clearly, get down from the high horse and think about what they write
