Tightening a Dt 125r rear wheel

[vtrn_raptor]

Help needed how do you tighten a dtr rear wheel without it moving I put it semi tight and adjust but when I go to tighten fully it moves

[Calum]

@vtrn_raptor Sockets on both sides?

[vtrn_raptor]

Yeah mate I'm using adjustable spanner one side and a mulgrip the other

[Darty]

@vtrn_raptor LOL. I don't understand?

[Calum]

I get the fricken snails move and the trick is small torques to get it tightenned.

To be honest , I have never seen easier tightening and setting chain on rear wheel than on DT's .

[vtrn_raptor]

I don't own a torque wrench and every time I tighten it moves

[Zrako]

Try to make some photos of the both sides and post them here so we can help you .

[Calum]

@vtrn_raptor I didn't say torque wrench. Just be patient with the tightening

[HOBO4LIFE]

@Calum Do you use torque wrench when tighten front/back wheels?

[Calum]

@HOBO4LIFE Never used to back in day. But now I own one I do.

If the snailadjusters move, just put your foot up against the rear wheel, and keep pressure on it while you tighten the axle.

Use a wrench on both sides if its the axle spinning..
