I really do not think so. You can slide the device L/R on the bars once the clamp is on.



So it is. Dishing tool says wheel is fine. Might need to tweak fork a bit. I can lose the QR, align well and tighten the QR and it's fine... but we know it won't stay that way. Had this bke 51 years, never crashed as I recall (by me, anyway!) and it seems to ride fine.
i like installing wheels with the bike upside down, and let gravity assist with the axle seating process.
