Hey there! On my Cafe Racer, the half with the axle spins with no wobble but the other half wobbles. This causes some vibe on the string. Is there any thing I can do to get rid of this vibe?

Thanks for any responses!

Are you sure it’s screwed together completely?

Yes it has but the collision with the ground was not even hard enough to penetrate the annodization of the yo-yo so I doubt the axle is bent.

have you tried taking it apart making sure your axle is all the way screwed down then screw it all the way together
