Hey, at least you gave it a shot!

It's got me stumped. Getting new rubber today so I'll have a nice look-see. Thanks for all the help guys - keep 'em coming.

 

wheel bearings mang...after the chain is off and rear tire on and axle tight...see if there is any play....or heck just start swapping parts with the GF's bike...
