Hey, whats up everyone,
i bought some new zimmerman x-drilled, and i ran into a problem last night - in that the skrew that held the rotor on was rusted to hell... so in the end the ONLY thing that i could do - even after trying liquid wrench, and a few others was to drill the skrew out.... so now i am left with the skrew inside the hub.... but i was able to get the rotor off...
i have heard of this happening to other people - and they are just running with a free range rotor - not held in by that one skrew... is this safe - what do you think?
hopefully i wont need a new hub

Re: a hub/Brake Question... please help (theflygtiguy)

it's fine. just a PITA when you change wheels to line up the holes. did you try to grab it with vise grips and get the nub out. or finish drilling it out and re-tap the hole.
