yammafan Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Noticed tonight that the front brake disc on my sherco has some movement in it where it is bolted to the hub. About 3mm I'd say. Just wondering if this is normal or if the disc should be tight. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canada280i Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 3mil at the bolts would be excessive, but at the disc rim it may be exaggerated so could be normal. If memory serves me the front disc is a floating disc so some movement is normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan williams Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 If the bolts are snug then it's probably normal free play for a floating disc. Many hubs have been ruined by people thinking there should be no disc movement and cranking down on the screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony27 Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 3mm sounds about normal, there ends up being a bit of sideways play as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0007 Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Same on my Evo, new bikes seem tight but I doubt it can come apart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
