One of the track ends are a tiny bit higher than the other causing the wheel to sit slightly off centre at the seat stays.
I want to remove a bit material from the track end to allow the axle to sit a bit lower. Doing it on both sides could give me a welcome mm of extra tyre clearance.
My question is what should I add over the axle to secure it down?
See exaggerated illustration attached. Contrary to the drawing my axle already sit at the edge of the track end so I want all the support I can give it. I can't see myself welding or brazing anything in there though.
Any suggestions welcome.
