Problem with Wheel/Disk/Fork... Help!
Hi all,
Trying to fit my new front wheel (721 on Pro2, 20mm through axle) to a Maz Z1 FR ('05), and Avid Juicy7s.
Now, if you could take a peek at this pic (ignoring my foot [:o)])

You can see that there is a large gap between the adapter and the mounting holes on the fork.
Any ideas? What am I doing wrong? Or do I just make up that gap with a load of washers? The gap is roughly 7mm.
I didnt really have any problems with my old setup; standard QR wheels, Fox Van32 fork, and same brakes.
Oh, I have loosened the bolts which slide the caliper in and out, but they dont give enough movement.
Ta, Duane [:)]

Is the hub centered on the axle? Could you move it across?

what is the disc size? 185mm.
i would try for 1 big spacer on each bolt rather than 10 small ones. also make sure the bolts are long enough.
