Hi. I have a question about the slipper gear. I tried to tighten the nut on the slipper gear but it still slips alot. Is there something else I should be doing?

Thanks, Anthony

Hey Anthony,
how much did you tighten the nut? the manual states that 4mm clearance(thickness of spring) should be the max. or gear stripping may occur. Did you take it to 4mm???

We like to lock it all the way down. Most of us don't even use the sprlng.

Yea. I have it at 4mm but very slow acceleration and sometimes slips. How do you not use the spring?

Forget the manual, tighten it as much as you can.
