I recently got a 2014 or 2013 S6, the non Evo. I had only few hours to play with it as the same day I was leaving for a work trip.
It has QR wheel in the rear, and while setting the wheel to sit in the dropout when bike stand on ground, the wheel doesn't sit symmetrically in the frame. I read in internetz that some S6s suffer from misaligned rear dropouts.
I can set it straight after some easy fiddling but I'm worried that after some riding the wheel will drop in fully into drop-outs, in the process eating dropouts and causing wheel rub on chainstays.
Is there some forum recommended way to deal with it? How about filling away a bit of dropout to bring symmetry?
