Skewer 'click'.

markdavidhill

I have to secure the front skewer 'very' tightly to stop it 'clicking' when applying some power. Should using some grease be a suitable way off stopping it and allowing a looser grip?

Closed or open cam design? Try a drop of light oil on pivot points, and work back and forth for a few seconds. May do the trick.

Open cam. Will try. Thank you.

Hope it worked.

Well it's all gone quiet...

Just put a small amount of wet lube on the cams. It appears that the skewers were not so much 'tight' as 'stiff'.

All sorted, they close with ease.
