  1. Hi everyone... Kinda new in this sport and was wondering anyone can give me some advice as to how to tighten the rear hub for a Mavic Cosmos. Its wobbling (about < .5mm of play) and I'm scared that it might damage it if I continue using it but the LBS mechanic said its still within specs.... What tools do I need to do this? Thanks. I'm mechanically inclined as I work on cars and motorcycles too. Thanks again.

  2. The best advice would be to obtain a copy of Bicycle Maintanance And Repair: Nashbar.com 18.99.

  3. I have found this website to be a great deal of help for me. Here's the direct linkof the page on truing a wheel.

    Hope this helps.

    The bike that I purchased a week ago has the same problem. Im going to get my LBS to have a look and see what he says. I was going to look at the Mavic website for maintenance instructions but I need a username and password. I might have another go at getting one. Let me know how you went.

    Thanks
