Hey guys, didn't intend to cause confusion, I'm totally on your side, as I said, it didn't make sense to me either- maybe a slight front wheel offset might counteract road camber or something, but I don't really want to go there

Makes total sense to me to have the front wheel central, and as Bill said(You're quite welcome to
butt in Bill), I just posted that(from Gary) to see if I'd misread it and attract opinions.
Sorry Jules, I really can't say what is 'correct', but reckon go with your intuition.
As I said, and if my maths is ok, I made my rear wheel (plunger QD WM3- 80mm wide) so the centre of rim is about 5mm to left of hub centre, if it were a WM2(70mm wide), the rim would be in line with the edge of hub on drive/left/spline side(I think?). I was using a S/A wheel until I found the truth, but I think it's about the same, 'cept it's a bit out of shape!
But as with lots of things, I feel that is an arbitrary guideline requiring 'fine tuning' to satisfaction
Good luck, duTch
