The lock - ring on my rear Hub (shimano xt centre -lock) is knackered, it keeps coming loose, it wasnt new when I put it on! its the Rotor side as opposed to the cassette side.

I probably need to clean out the threads and re-tighten. But just in case it is fooked, does anyone have any lying around in their spares box that they dont mind sending to a new home?

These are the same lockrings that come with shimano cassettes, so I am sure someone has one lying about.

Just think of the karma points.


Pm if you can help.

    not really the right section. there is a Wanted area.

    be aware that 11T lockrings are too small.

    Sorry, my bad.

    Thanks for the heads up on the 11t, I wasnt sure!

    If only you were running Campagnolo with an 11 sprocket...
