To fix the play, all you need is an allen key. Leave the wheel in the drop outs, loosen that little screw on the bearing cover (see pic below) a couple of turns, and turn the cap until it is finger tight - adjusting the preload. Once the play is gone, tighten the little screw again. Over tightening the QR will cause damage.

Thanks for that! Tightened up and all good! :thumbup:

 

have you using ceramic bearings? If yes, what's the experience been so far?

I use the standard stainless steel ones that came with the wheels, and I'm super impressed with them. Haven't tried the ceramics (I was too scared to ask ASG for prices on those!).

A set of 4 are 105 euros from the germans if you are keen to give them a roll ;)

 

but very much agreed: the SS bearings rolling magnificently. I am mega impressed with them.
