I've got the new thru axle today. Thigten it to 20nm, set the caliper, and reverse the rear tire becasue decathlon put it on the wrong direction (and I have not noticed it so far) :D
The metallic noise became quieter but still exist. I think the root cause maybe the big lugs on the Taipan...
Yes, the original thru axle (Thru Axle Rear Wheel 12x148 mm BOOST Steel) has a larger head. BTW, I think this Sram axle is not compatible because the thread pitch is shorter (1.0 mm vs. 1.5 mm). I finally ordered an original one from Dechathlon, hope to get it tomorrow.
Good idea, I will try...
So... mission failed:
I tried to tighten the axle with a Beta torque wrench two times (don’t ask why, I was just unsure). The second attempt was not tolerated by the axle screw. I think it's my fault, but be careful if you want to tighten it, this screw is very weak.
Now I'm going to search...
Thanks! I've checked the rear axle screw. The torque wrench was clicking at ~20nm. So I think it was good, maybe a simple brake adjustment is also needed. I will try it.
Hi! I bought an E-ST 900 in December but I just started using it because of the weather. Everything is fine, except I also have a noisy rear brake (when cornering at 20+ km/h). What is the correct way to fix? Is this just a simple brake setting (what I will learn on YT :D) ? Or should something...
