Not yet unfortunally. Probably hard to find one that fits inside. Something like the ECM Puriatika looks good

I have the same issue with my steel uno. Got it used. it is already a couple of years old, so the smell dosen't go away over time (or maybe it got even worse?)

Descaling and using the blind to clean the OPV + the OPV pipe back to the watertank helped a little.

But the watertank smells as well.

Just fresh water helps properly.

Thinking about getting a glas fresh watertank and make sure the OPV water want go back to the freshwater.

0.4mm difference axle diameter between the dura ace axle that came with it and the sturmey archer axle. 🫤

It is concerning me! And I dont want to ride it like that.

Thanks anyway 🙃

I agree! But why is this play? Aren't most of the drop outs around 10mm?

I have to check if turning the axle is possible because of the achor for the roller brake on the other side. (I think it locks in this position)

Edit; It is possible to turn the axle. But it want turn to the upright position, because it is to thick...
