Why does the chain skip to the outside of the bottom wheel?
Basically the angle between the bottom and top wheels is too great causing the chain to skip to the outside of the bottom wheel under force. If I use the higher adjustment screw on the shimano derailleur to align them better the top wheel is then not aligned with the smallest sprocket.
What happens if your rear tire leans in?
If you have one of the rear tires leaning in then you have damaged the upper control arm or spindle is bent. Have the vehicle suspension checked for damaged components and have alignment done.

Where is h limit screw on rear derailleur?
The H limit screw should be set with the chain on the large chainwheel and smallest, outermost sprocket. The position of the upper jockey wheel of the rear derailleur should be aligned with the outside, vertical plane of the small cog.
What happens when the wheels are not aligned?
Handling and tracking problems, as a result of the wheels not being aligned to the bike’s mid-line. Chainline and shifting problems from the rear cogsets being poorly aligned with the front chainrings. Difficulty in removing and installing wheels. This can result in slow wheel changes.

How does Sheldon Brown’s truing wheels work?
It has a concave shoe which sits on top of the inflated tire, and a hook which goes under the rim. The bottom of the hook is forked so it can fit over a spoke. Tightening a large wingnut pulls the hook up, and pulls out the dent in the rim. This tool is no longer made, though it sometimes appears on eBay.
