Hello,

 

After recently servicing the front brakes on my volcane, I noticed that there is a lot more resistance to rotation from the off-side front wheel than from the near-side front wheel.

 

I've verified that the issue isn't due to a sticky caliper, by re-checking with the offside front caliper brake pads removed.

 

So I'm wondering if this has something to do with the asymmetry of driveshaft design? Or could this be indicative of the front hub bearing being overtightened, perhaps deliberately to conceal wear?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Justin
