front wheel shaft slight warp

Post by Tonyvdb »

So after replacing my front forks with progressive springs I did notice that the front wheel shaft has a slight bend to it in more than one spot. As if the previous owner hit something hard with the front wheel and tried to straighten it themselves. Im hesitant to try and straighten it as its not bad but still there. Does anybody have access to one that is straight that they would sell me?
