Any body put the shims in the rear wheel to stop the wobble? I got some, do they go behind the driver?
-
:) Explain further please. :daumenhoch:

Profile mini cassette hubs can sometimes develop a slight wobble or play so they supply a very thin shim to stop this, I'm just wondering if the shim go's behind the driver because there is already one there so sounds like its to beef that 1 up a little bit...?
-
is the shim thinner or thicker than the one already there?
they also do wafer thin ones which go behind the axle bearings
as above more info/pics required

it is wafer thin fella? But I'd of thought just putting up with the og should get rid of slack or should go behind the bearings?

:) I`m using a 1mm shim behind the cog on my mini race cog to correct the chainline,hub is 18 months old & no probs so far.

If you have a wobble, you have broken a bearing, take them out and check around the outside, I fookin hate profile for this, I must go through one bearing a month on a ss 10mm rear,
I have other issues with other profile hubs I have, I honestly don't know why...
But anyway, that shim, it goes behind the driver, keeps the driver from rubbing on the inner shell.
The other thing is, are you running female axle or male, and if it's female is it the steel or alloy version, as the axle stubs have different threads.

I had the same wobble in my Profile Mini hubs too. I put new bearings in the hub shell and the driver along with new shims but still the wobble remained....Couldn't be bothered with it anymore so I sold the hubs dirt cheap just to get rid of them.
