Ive had my bike (Eastern Traildigger 2010) for 9 months now and I have recently noticed a problem with the rear wheel. The spokes have been moveable for about two months but it was only yesterday that they started squeaking under pressure, and considering i weigh 55kg, i figured it wasnt because of my weight! Any help with fixing the wheel or any more information would be fantastic!

  • Take it to a bike shop and have them re true your rear rim... the spokes need to be tightened. It will do this if you jump it a lot.

  • Get a spoke wrench and tighten them and don't ride till u do!

  • this same thing happpend to my rim i just got it tightened up

  • easy, 5 doller spoke wrench <3

  • just tighten the nipples a liittle bit but the are suppose to be a little loose

  • Take is to a bike shop and they will true both the wheels cheaply. or if you are up for doing it your self buy a spoke wrench and make sure it is the right size for your spokes. tighten each spoke until there is no play and they one my one tighten or loosen each spoke to get it straight it can take a while to get the hang of it.

  • @TheGlueStickTheory Yeah man no prob. How do you like Eastern??? I've been lookin into gettin the Eastern Mothra possibly.

  • Hi there

    You should re true your wheel tightning up the spokes so its not so easy to move
