shimming the axle

 I've noted when undoing my axle that there is too much play for my taste (less is better) when the axle takes the forces of the motor torque (in order to power foward).

So I've added a shim of 0.3mm Aluminium Flashing to wrap around the axle to not only take up that, but move the future damage to that shim not keep letting the axle chew out the fork.


So, for the interested,  here's a video on that



Enjoy
