    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I replaced front wheel bearings on my bike, I am sure the bearings are seated properly. And yet I cant seem to center the wheel properly. I am not aware of a offset. since the groove for the speedo looking forward is on the left side, I did not accidentally rotate the wheel. the disk is properly placed in the caliperas well.. and still the wheel does not look in center.
If someone has any ideas, please send me an e mail to hsteil4356@aol.com
or post it here. are there any washers on the outside of the forks?
appreciate any help. Peter

If the discs are sitting in the calipers then the wheel must be centered - take a couple of measurements to check.
