Anyway, I have the tire straight now, but the wheel is still in the front 1/4th of the dropouts. I tightened the quick release as tight as possible, but it still scares me a bit with the wheel so far up front. Should I worry about it?
Check to see if the cogset is binding in the frame at the dropout.
