Hi Chaps,

A friend of mine has lost the captive nut at the end of the Axle on her Zesty. I've suggested popping to a hardware store with the axle to gt a replacement, or contacting we love lapierre. Does anyone have the dimensions of the but or an idea where to get a replacement?

I remember when she tried to pop the axle back on the nut popped out, I didn't think about it at the time but should have popped some threadlock on the back.

Cheers

Ricks

Should be a tiny grubscrew under the dropout to hold it in place, they don't always get tightened in the factory/retailer, and aren't always as secure as they should be. Probably worth making sure it's tight when you fit the new one, and being careful when fitting and removing the axle too.
