I don't understand how to properly fit/shim the front axle to achieve proper
spacing and tension on the wheel bearings. My wheel fork is 152mm wide
outside, 142mm inside. The wheel width overall at the bearings is about 75mm
and adding 62mm for the spacers = 137mm. That leaves about 5mm of slack. The
kit includes 2 AN960-1216 washers that I thought would go on the outside
under the castle nuts. Should these actually be on the inside of the fork to
take up that 5mm of slack, or should they be on the outside with and
additional pair on the inside? (I notice that 2 AN960-1216's total about 5mm
thick so seems would be about right.) How does one properly shim the
bearings and tighten the axle nuts to get the right tension on the wheel
bearings?

If you can hand spin it with ease, and there is no twist motion, its tight enough, no science, more of a feel thang.

Thanks. I think I've got it now.
Do not archive.
