I don't think every thread starter is obliged to jump through hoops for any poster that demands a picture or wants their opinion acknowledged. Especially posters that largely ignore the information already posted in the thread. THe OP sounds VERY thorough in his inspection of his frame and in trying multiple wheels.

If you believe there is some avenue left unexplored, you should point to what it could be rather than imply that withholding a photo from you is some sort of cover up.


If this was a metal frame or hadn't been closely inspected already there would be more to check or other solutions to consider. But the fact that this bike consists of small pieces of aluminum glued decades ago into unbendable carbon tubing limits what can be done without causing damage. Minorly truing up the dropouts with a file accomplishes what the OP needs without extra inspections that won't yield solutions - it doesn't matter if the whole frame is crooked if you can't fix a crooked CF frame or the dropouts can't be bent without straining the bonds.
