Go to Post Feelings are like the laws of physics: if some one feels offended or alienated, then they are offended or alienated - it doesnt matter why you dropped a hammer, if it falls on someones head they will be hurt. You cant expect it to not hurt, because you did not intend to hurt them. - KenWittlief [more]

I have a feeling that you're not using any spacers on your axles. Try cutting some PVC pipe to length to slide over your axles to keep the wheels in the same place, it'll also keep the bearings from sliding out because theres PVC pipe in the way....

Should be like this

| is sprocket
- is axle
= is spacer
|| is wheel


-==|=||==-
