Slot.it rear wheel grub screws too tight

And I'd probably not be using that eBay seller if I'd been left out of pocket by them on three occasions!
Glad to see all sorted now, have you tried grinding a flat on the axle yet?

I'm slowly learning the trick of getting the torque correct - had a few tears along the way, but I'll get there. Hobby has seen the result of my over-zealous tightening, first hand.

I've got the MBSlot torque wrenches - I find them fine for NSR larger grub screws, but I manage to over-torque the smaller Slot.It grubs. I wonder if I can easeit back a few tenths of a NM?

John- I don't normally agree much with gooners, but funnily enough I do that myself, just out of logic - and I'm a real wet behind the years slotter. I thought back to how my old Laverda triple used to just about not shake itself to bits by staggering the pistons at 120 degree intervals.

Glad you cleared up that bit, I made an assumption that the screws had been removed but the axle was not shifting in that instance. I need to go back and reread that whole section of the thread.
