Askies Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 My rear mtb wheel when put back into the frame, has a much larger gap on the right side compared to the left side. . My wheels were rebuilt a weak ago. So they straight. But when the wheel is not spinning their is an evident larger gap on the one side of the wheel, compared to the other side. Ive retightened the skeweres, but still the same.Is it normal ?
King_Crispy Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Nope. The dude who built your wheel dished it wrong.Take it back and get it done right ThePubSA 1
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 What Krispy said. They may be straight but they aren't proper
Buchu Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I had the same problem with my Scott Pro frame. Scott did replace my frame.

Lone_Ranger Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Wheels weren't dished to suit your frame. Had a similar prob with a set of second hand wheels I bought. Had the rear one dished to suit the frame and they're right as rain.

They werent dished to my frame ?

Got a race on monday, and have apsolutely no time to gonto my lbs.I rode +- 300km with a wheel like that... But like the okes said have it fixed. Think it cost me 100 jimmies or so to sort out.
