how about compensating by not doing the them same in the first place my 2mm and then when you tourq up it will finnish the same

Surely this will work if it's moving the same amount every time you torque them up?


Also, do you have any issues riding after you've torqued them up, as it may be absolutely fine and down to the markers being very slightly off.

I didnt try that one mate, just the other suggestions relating to stopping the chain/pulling the chain to ; no effect  ; I'm going to do the 2mm adjustment thing tomorrow . I dont know if there is a problem when riding - I cannot discern one but then again I would not recognise whatever it is that goes wrong ?? When I bought the bike the main dealer had serviced it and checked the chain and both markers were bang on - I just replaced the chain as a personal choice , the old one had done 13K so time for a change anyway.

Its like I push the wheel forward , markers on both side ok, on the r./h side I tighten the adjuster then the axle nut yet still the r/h marker is out - how on earth can it be moving - ah well.

Just to check with you good guys, I'm loosening the calliper torque arm bolt at the calliper end then retightening  , this is correct ? otherwise I do not  see how the wheel can move with calliper in-situ.
