TBH, that looks to me like perspective of the photos is just playing tricks. The fork and bars are pointing to the left slightly in the photo, so the gap on the right will obviously seem bigger. Either that or the wheel is massively out of true.
Its through axle, so obviously the wheel cant be attached on the piss if the axle is in correctly. For it to be as off centre as much as it appears in the picture with axle threaded all the way in correctly there would need to be something severely wrong with the fork, which would be immediately noticeable when ridden.
And just FYI, that is not an orginal Giro ridden bike, It was one produced afterwards for display at Dealers/Rapha Club houses. On the plus side of this the paint on this one will be much better quality than the ones actually ridden in the Giro.
Also, in the listing it states there were only 27 made, which is not true.
