Moonstone2.0 Wrote:2 bolts cross threaded in a row. then tried a bolt from the rear wheel and it seemed to tighten reasonably but not going to go crazy on it.

Bought a new hub, but the task looks a bit daunting to say the least! So just wanted to check I want being totally idiotic.

Nah your not mate, I would try threading a bolt in just using your fingers with no wheel in place and see if you can see the problem although if it was a problem with the threads in the hub then I would expect it to cross thread on like the second or third turn not when its nearly all the way in :?
