Rear Wheel Install RGS

Oh dear, let's get back to basics: Do you reckon the gold one would be fitted where it gets covered in crap from the drive chain?
No, of course not. It matches the brake side perfectly. Gold brake side silver sprocket side.

The gold one when fitted to the right sends the wheel too far to the left, and it just happens the gold one is 10mm wider ......... so logic says?????

Ammmm, it's not rockit science doc.
 
Threads should be renamed, before I saw the front wheel pictures, I assumed we were dealing with an RGS.

I'm not sure the wheel should be centered, as others have suggested.  A previous owner wouldn't have mixed them up,...... right? :LOL:

Never assume anything! It make an 'ass' out of 'u' and 'me'.
There is indeed the possibility that the previous owner or someone doing work for him (like changing tyres in a garage) did mix the spacers up.

This impressed me. Made my day  :) 
 
Main thing that matters is the sprocket to chain wheel alignment. If that is 10 mm off, you would see it if you do what Keith suggested: go down behind the bike and take a look along the chain wheel...
 
Hhhmmm one of the comments was " Easy to use and fixed my slightly mis-aligned rear wheel. Now my bars do not wobble when I let go. Kind of expensive, but I'll be glad if it lasts. "

Wonder if that's my problem with the waving bars???
