⚠️ Riziko

The product poses a risk of injuries because excessively long screws may have been included in the repair kits for securing the wheel flange and brake disc to the hub. As a result of insufficient pretensioning in the hub-brake disc-wheel flange interface, an oscillation fracture of the screws may occur, compromising the securing of the wheel in question.
