Re: Improved IFI Wheels
I'm curious if anyone has had problems with these wheels? Our screws kept backing out even after loctite and good torques. They don't seem to handle the shear/vibration happening when getting torqued. They also seem to flex enough to cause chain misalignments under hard turns. Last night we had to take all the roller bearings out of them and make long brass bushings to go all the way through the wheels as our 3/8" shafts kept bending and we completely smashed the roller bearings in 1 wheel. So far this has solved the flexing problems but I don't like riding on brass bearings. I think They're a great idea, but their modularity may be a serious weakness. I hope I'm wrong and we're just having bad luck.
