    Hey Guys and Gals.

    Need some urgent assistance, just had new tyres fitted and being a tight arse took the wheels out as it was cheaper than getting the garage to do it. I've fitted the rear wheel with no problems but the front wheel is causing me some problems, got the wheel in and the spindle but when I tighten the spindle up it goes too far through and there is a gap between the fork leg and the spacer on the left side as you look at the bike. What am I doing wrong. Both front wheel spacers are identical so it doesn't matter which one goes into which side.
    Any help much appreciated, tearing my hair out now!

    Think i've sorted it had to nip the pinch bolts and knock the fork leg upto the spacer.
