Front axle bolt
When i got my forks straightened out, the guy told me that the axle was slightly bent as well, just slightly at one end.
Is this possable, what effect would it have?

Yes, entirely possible, though they usually snap, apparently.
Perhaps see if you can get it straightened, or buy a new one.

If it can be straightened they are the people to do it. Find them at Mill Hall Business Estate, Aylesford, Kent, ME20 7JN or on 01622 - 790 705. |
