OK, well not a single speed, but a hub gear. Its my commuter bike – Cotic Roadrat but it does have horizontal drop-outs. I’ve done a couple of hundred miles on it now and the chain is getting noticeably slack.
The rear wheel is a standard bolt-up job with a 15mm nut on both sides. I have slackened off both bolts, pulled the wheel back a bit and then nipped the bolts back up, but as I don’t have 3 hands (and getting the wife to help somehow makes it more awkward!) I’m not convinced the wheel is square in the frame.
Would the process of tightening the bolts true everything up? The wheel isn’t visually wonky, but just wondered if anyone had any tips for making sure it is spot on.
Thanks!
