I had a rear wheel stand for my old 1990 Rc36 and when I tried it on my -01 Fi the axle wouldn't fit in the hub,

I don't know yet if I would look for a new axle or mill the existing one a mm or 2 depending on the hole´s diameter on my FI

So just in case, does anybody got the dimension for the hole in the rear wheel hub in mm?

I just measured an RC36 (3rd gen) axle at just under 28mm (I think I've seen it referred to as 27.5mm) and an RC46 axle at 28.7mm. HTH.

Ciao,

huh, funny :P wondering why it won´t fit on my rc46, I haven't seem any damages either on the hub.

Found the problem. Alot of surface coverage with gunk an a little rust etc. Now the axle fits

Tight as hell, took a bit of sandpaper etc to clean the surface in the hub
