I've heard you can check your alignment while riding, going over 40mph, some engine braking and taking hands off of bars. Does anyone know if this is bullshit or true? Is there another way to check while riding? Thanks

Yeah that’s what I did after my chain alignment the other week. Accelerated quickly to 40-50 on a flat smooth road. Let go 2 hands seemed to work for me. There’s probably more scientific videos on the web. Same concept on a bicycle.

You're supposed to jump off the bike and see whether it goes straight. Gotta do it carefully though otherwise you'll disturb the natural trajectory of the machine, as you're hopping off.

When my bike will stand straight up by itself without tipping over then its aligned...
