I've just bought a bike and when you pick the rear end up there is some movement before the wheel comes off the ground. My question is, is it the du bushes need replacing or what? Any help would be great. Rob

There isn't any sideways movement so do you think the actual bearings will be ok?

Take the shock completely out and remove the rear wheel.Run the frame through it,s travel and also check side to side.You'll feel if anything is a miss. 😉
