I have noticed that the back wheel of my mountain bike the wheel leans more to one side than the other. I thought that this may have been due to one side being tightened more than the other but this is not the case. Having untightened the wheel and re-tightening it back on the same thing happens - the wheel leans more to the right side. When loose the wheel sits in the middle, as it should - it is only when I start tightening that the leaning starts occurring. Obviously this is also resulting in problems with my brakes - the brake pad on one side is closer to the wheel than the other.
Before taking it off for service is there anything I can do myself or is it likely I will need a new wheel. I may just buy a new bike if that is the case. The bike didn't cost me much anyway.
