Long story, but I got the warranty through a different LBS (another Cannonade dealer). Thanks for all the replies. I'll look into the Hex head skewer instead. I will say I didn't notice this issue as much when I was using the stock HED skewer with the rear wheel, and not the trainer skewer, but...

The loose free hub explanation is interesting...never thought of that. I'll get that checked out next time I'm at the ship. As far as dealing with the frame, I'm hesitant to go through the entire warranty process again (because it's a hassle, I only have 1 bike at the moment, and it ends up...

When I ride the trainer (Cyclops Magnetic at home or Computrainer), after tightening down the sides, when I start to tighten down the flywheel, my back wheel shifts toward my non-drive chain stay. Pretty much the wheel shifts a bit. Once I hop on the trainer, my weight added (70kg) makes the...

Cool. Appreciate the advice. If I was to just get new hubs, which would you recommend? Or just ask for new bearings. I ride a lot but wheels/wheel maintenance is alien to me, something I admittedly need to learn about. Thanks

Cool, thanks for the advice. I'll look around for someone local...don't know of anyone but I'll ask around. To answer "Also, what factors have you considered regarding the build? What are your local roads like? Do you climb a lot? Do you mash or spin? How heavy are you? If these wheels are...

Hi all, I'm looking to build up a new set of training wheels. Looking at getting HED Belgian C2s w/ White Industry T11 Hubs through wheelbuilder.com. I get to the question about upgrading to ceramic bearings, and I'm wondering if it's worth it. Part of me thinks if these are training...
