How-do

just stripped ad serviced my rear Chris King ISO hub. When I've put the wheel back into the frame the rotor is now rubbing on the frames caliper mount (and taken me new paint off).

What have I done??! I'm not aware I've done anything different but I must have. At first I thought I missed the end cap off the axle but no, it's definitely there.\

Anyone have any sage advice........please!

Thanks

At a guess - put the LH endcaps on the RHS and vice versa.

They both look the same size, I took them off to compare and there's no difference to my aged eye.

Flip them around anyway, see if that works. Simple things first 👍

Yeah, checked the brake disc. Its definitely on the way it was.

Will give the end caps a swap, and hope that works.

Never touched that bearing alexnharvey.

Bugger it, I'm away for a pint and some food. It'll wait for another day.

Actually bearing not pressed on that side would move the rotor away from the frame. It has to be missing something on that side or had something extra on the other side.
