Hi,
I've just swapped over some forks on my bike going from a set of 2011 RS Sektors with a 20mm axle, over to a set of 2012 RS Lyriks with a 20mm axle.
Weirdly the wheel at the rim appears to be offset by around 5mm towards to the brake rotor side on the Lyriks. The rotor itself lines up perfectly well with the caliper.
Putting the wheel back into the Sektors the rim appears to be perfectly centered.
Should there be any difference in hub setup between these 2 models given they are both 20mm axles? Forks bent perhaps? Though I can't spot anything obviously wrong with them.
Cheers!
Just to add to this, if I reverse the wheel in the forks the offset is lessened but still on the same side. Would this only indicate bent forks?
