In regards to the centre plane test - should I be measuring the distance between the straight edge and the front rim or the rear rim?

Given the issues ive had with this bike its hard to maintain perspective and these issues are getting in to my head. Slowly gaining it back though....
In order.

The effect on rolling resistance won't be negligible, it'll be ZERO. So no sweat there.

Since it's the rear wheel we're talking about, you measure to that one. Anyway you can't measure to the front since that one turns (steers).
Also, don't forget that ride trumps measurements, so if it rides right, then it's OK.

Sorry to hear about your problems, hopefully they're all behind you now.
