The tire arms look bent/crooked. What do I do?

UPDATED JANUARY 2025

You might notice that the tire arms on your rack look crooked or possibly even bent.

Loosen and retighten the tire spools so that they are aligned/evenly positioned on the tire arm.

If the spool is slightly slanted, the arm may appear to “bend” and look crooked.

Also, you might have to turn the carriage bolt a 1/4 turn either way to make sure the gold lever is tight and against the bar as shown in the picture.
