I will. Unfortunately, Keven seems to be out for the next week and a half. > Is it possible that your frame was tweaked in transit somewhere?

When I jam the wheel in, it appears to be straight, but that's hardly proof of anything. And I may be only moving things 1.45mm per side, but that requires a tremendous effort on my part. With the front wheel mounted and the dropouts lined up with the rear axle, I can lean pretty hard on the frame and only one side of the axle will slide into the dropout. I'm not very heavy, but this is just not acceptable. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
