It's adjustable, of course, by moving the axle down a bit on one side, but I don't know who advisable that is. I do it on another bike I have though, with no ill effects thus far.
I did scan the other thread so I'm not scared off. I can have the fork checked for alignment. I happen to have a fantastic builder in town who could look at it.
Edit about the shifter: Even better.
