I do my own stunts
Because it's been a fortnight without my rear wheel playing up...
(As usual please excuse me if I have the wrong terminology.)
Went to cycle today and the rear wheel is rubbing against the left hand rear fork. A quick inspection and the wheel appears to be true with no loose spokes. It is centred around the bit by the pedals but is way out of centre from the forks coming down from the saddle, about 15mm from the right fork and no space from the left.
I have taken out and reseated the rear wheel which has just about got it away from the fork but the QR axle doesn't seem to go as far down as it should judging by previous marks on the paint.
Is this likely to be damage to the alu frame or am I missing something obvious? Thank you as always for your advice.
Edit: the first photo is a bit misleading, I must have taken it at an angle but if you view it from above it is centred.
