hi
i had a problem with the rear mech so i took it into a repair shop and left it there i went for it the next day and he had to replace the rear ball bearings because they was the wong size or and ever since he has replaced them every time i tighten the bearings too much they dont turn or if i dont tighten them enough the bearings are loose and the wheel shakes. i dont know weather it is to do with the bearings do any of you guys know. im a newbie to this hobbie and i think he has put bearings in what are to big. any help is great thanks
