Ok, so I've followed the instructions to a t converting my Iodine 2s from 20mm to 15mm but I think I'm missing Something

Removed end caps and had to take axle out as new 15mm end caps wouldn't fit otherwise, fitted new end caps and job supposedly done.

I can pull caps out slightly and they feel loose, and when fitting wheel into my Pikes if I do Maxle up as I would normally the wheel doesn't spin, suggesting cap isn't pushed in far enough.

Surely the kit should come with an axle to go between the two caps? Haven't bought wrong kit as was only supplied with the Caps

Lost, please Help? Seriously considering getting different wheels now

Granted it doesn't say to remove axle, but honestly had I not taken the 20mm one out I'd not have been able to fit anything

I bought them late last year, believe they are 2012 versions, found the different kits and reckon it's the other one I need, not just the Caps.

Thanks for replies
