Seem to be setting the wheel out of line in the smallest of off's. Anybody know why? This is on my WR, not the CR LOL.


I have tightened the fork bolts and it still seems to be doing it.


Any help greatly appreciated. I'm a bit of a n00b LOL.

I had same problem loosen all your fork bolts right off and do them all up turns at a time and you should have no problems

CR probably has solid bar mounts whereas the WR might have rubber ones?

Just guessing though.

dont over tighten your fork bolts to much , 17 an 13 ft pds from memory but dont quote me i always refer to my book ,, rubber mounted bars dont take alot to twist an if its the forks just kick the wheel back to straight

Put bike on stand do up axle nut then nip up left side bolts,Take bike of stand,Compress the forks by holding front brakes on a few times then nip up right side bolts,Then go round and tighten to torque spec swapping sides after each one

Dunno if this will help but thats how i do up my front axle etc

You checked for loose spokes etc?
