Dumb question ,
Does anybody have a diagram or pic of the rear caliper mount for an X1? I recently removed mine and now the disc is hitting the inside edge of the caliper mount. Theres a bolt that appears to ride in a groove on the inside of the swingarm, sound correct? I can post pics later

Thanks
Matt

I think it's an Allen head on the hanger/mounting plate which must go into the slot in the swingarm to prevent the caliper (and hanger) from rotating. Is that what's giving you problems?

Steve,
that would be it. I must have the wheel in crooked as the disc is hitting the inside of the caliper mount. Seems to happen when I tighten up the axle nut.

Though I might have missed a washer or something

I'll check wheel alignment again

Thanks
Matt

Turns out is was the sprocket hitting the rear wheel stand. Good old operator error
