Da Bomb Axle and Hub

[chippamania]

Hey all....

My bro has a problem with his rear Da Bomb axle and hub. Its like the axle is a "smidgen" too short for the hub - resulting in the nut not screwing on as much as it should (hence possible safety problem).

Does anyone else out there have a 150mm x 12mm hub and axle? I'd like to confirm some measurements if possible...

Thanks!

Maybe the axle was from a different frame that still had 150mm spacing but the swingarms were thinner resulting in a slightly shorter axle. Did you buy the frame second hand? You may have to buy an axle suited for your frame

How much thread is exposed when the nuts are tight, on both sides? Or does it not even go completely thru the nuts?

now i'm sure you would realise this, but for informations sake, are you sure its a 150x12? Da bomb have many frames with 165x12 rear ends
