I took my back shock off 2day and when the bike was all down at the back i noticed that the back left wheel stuck out more than the right. About 4cm. Whats up with that? If i put a stick against the back wheel and front wheel theres a gap between the stick. And the right there is no gap
Wheel alignment. Check with your frame and measure back to the wheel. Just to make sure it's not twisted. But it seems that your alignment is out.
Check alignment.... But banshees came like that from the factory, BUT not 4cm.... 10mm or so is common on new bikes.... I've seen it MANY times..... But make sure your rear axle is adjusted evenly also...
How do u mean check that its adjusted? Whith those spacer washers on the splines where the back wheels go on? Cause they evanly spaced out. So is my frame manufactured skew or bent or what?
And the distance from my a arms to the axle are the same both sides so my alighnment is good i guess. And my u bolts 4 the chain tensioner are evan
No, what we mean is that your front wheel alignment is out.
Oh so how should i check it if i cant use my back wheels? Evan my back plastics dont lineup evanly with the back wheels
How much is it out to your back frame?
From the frame its 10mm. Weird. . . . .so im guessing its ok?
Yip. Just do your front alignment and you will be fine
