robbie-woods Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Bit confused as to why my front wheel doesn't sit center. Have I built the wheel wrong?It does have a disc brake on the front if you couldn't see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob. Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 de build it and build it back up following a guide, you have gone wrong big time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Try dishing it, just undo the nipples on the side it's close to and tighten the ones on the other side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 if it's that close to the fork leg all the way round, then simply dish it. if it's all buckled and horrible, well do your best to fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbie-woods Posted September 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Okay thanks. Thought it was wrong and feels horrible to ride! It's quite true though so shouldn't take long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Or you've just dished it off centre..... Did you build the rim so it lines up between the hub flanges? If so that's where you've gone wrong. Looks like you just need to tighten the non-drive side spokes until it sits central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
