Vixen and M series stub axles

[adrian@]

I have added this with it's own topic, as I feel it's a safety related item ....1st brought up in relation to a Vixen but the M also runs with the same stub axle. Try this ...about 6 years ago the make-supplier of the stub axles to the Truimph world made a batch of stub axles that had the wrong taper, these as the male part did not fit into the female part (the upright) without allowing the whole stub axle to rock, I recalled all of mine that I had sold and replaced them with the replacement units, I believe that the Truimph people that were supplied with these were also informed that there was a fault....but very little of the stock ever got back to the supplier, these stub axles cause this very problem. (wheel balance and brake disc shudder)
